Funny, in the rental market, most states literally _very enthusiastically_ enforce a housing regulation where is staunchly illegal charge rent to two people for the same property, regardless of whatever contracts they've signed. So you know, how the airlines might book 103% of capacity on a plane? oh yeah, straight to jail. Guy signed a lease and defaulted, you find a substitute renter and you don't cancel the original tenant's payments? also, believe it or not, straight to jail.
- pushedx 2y agoExactly, so it's very likely that the seat that they are concerned with will actually be filled, based on the way they operate right now.

- teo_zero 2y agoHouses are perhaps the exception, because hotel rooms, b&b's, cars, and many other rentals that are sold as services don't benefit from the same protection. I'd postulate it's because a house is not considered replaceable with another one or with a refund, while car rides, flights and short-term accommodations are.
