Airlines are always on the edge of bankruptcy. Seriously, take a look at any airline's annual report. The only hope they have of making any profit whatsoever is to ensure as close to 100% of seats are filled as possible. Since an average of, say, 5% of people cancel, you overbook by that percentage. The problem only comes when things aren't average.

Honestly, we should be focusing on the TSA violating the Constitution, not overbooking.

And on the books, no hollywood movie has ever made a profit.

Are you saying airlines are secretly making tons of money?

They're not.
