I’m not following you. They want to sell enough tickets in case there are people who don’t care one way or the other? Won’t they sell however many tickets they feel is necessary to fill the airplane anyway? Non-revs never fall into their equation as to how many tickets they sell. And what if non-rev passengers don’t care one way or the other either? And how would this affect non-rev passengers since they never get re-accommodated anyway? Is it truly about social distancing or not? The virus doesn’t care if you paid for the ticket.
