So, a couple things I always tell people whenever they're afraid they might get bumped is I ask them, “Okay, well how did you find your ticket?” Search engines like Expedia and Kayak.com are great for finding good deals but when it comes to buying the ticket I really recommend going to the airline's website. If you can go to the airline's website and communicate directly with that company to purchase your ticket that's the best idea.
