OPRE 3310: Homework Assignment 5 Q1 (5 points). Next week, Super Discount Airlines has a flight from New York to Los Angeles that will be booked to capacity. The airline knows from past history that the number of cancellations/no-shows is uniformly distributed between 10 and 20. Revenue from a ticket on the flight is $125. If the flight is overbooked, the net cost for the airlines to "bump" the customer to a different flight is $250. By how many seats should Super Discount overbook the flight?
