I am not going to say it's not impossible that, in the perfect scenario, there may be a time that some bags might need to be left behind. But it would be a very very rare occurrence.

You're so full of crap. This is not true. I fly the plane and I have never had to leave anyone behind due to weight restrictions in a high alt/hot day. We have the 89,000lbs mtow mod so i can't speak to other airlines and how they operate. Not only have I, myself, not had to leave anyone behind yet (SLC-Montana or wherever) no one I have talked to has had to do that either.

The mod has nothing to do with it. It's the climb performance, and second segment climb. You could have a MGTOW of 180,000, but if it can't meet the 2nd segment climb performance, than you're payload limited.
But, who really cares. Honestly. (now go ahead and say something snarky to get the last word in)

Again, nobody said anything about SLC- Montana flights. Re-read. It was also a problem on LGA-DFW flights, so bad that Delta started blocking off seats so that they wouldn't have to bump people. And just this summer on SLC-FAR/OMA there were weight restrictions where yes people, not just bags, were left behind.

So how about those secret CRJs? Had a line check yesterday and the guy said Delta got them. I told him to quote the source and he couldn't. Then I kindly reminded him that delta still has 30 options. I've never observed any US carrier buy aircraft in a clandestine manner. Have they?
