When you check in you can ask if they are over booked. If not there is no chance of a bump

If someone isn't in a rush it might be worth it to them.

also very wierd, when i switched my flight (for a boat load of money  :P) we got our new itinereries emailed to us and it said under free gags - 2pc. so i called up and they said it seems like a glitch then i just checked in now and im able to purchase another bag for cheaper and it said how many bags would i like and it says 1 (free) 2(free) seems like each of mine and my wifes tickets have 2 free bags... make sense?

Is that a new feature to be offered online to be bumped? What is the route?

it seems like a new policy to ask ALL online how much just in case..
this is my 4th flight with that pop up and nobody was asked - and still room on the flight

Delta doesn't care about babies at all!

They'll give out all front seats to elites, and if at the time of boarding there is still something left they might give you a bassinet.
