Stop airlines from being able to overbook flights
Airlines are allowed to sell more seats for a flight than they currently have. This means that purchasing a ticket and turning up on time for a flight does not guarantee a seat. Selling a product that does not exist is an unfair practice and would not be tolerated in other industries.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
This law is the responsibility of the EU, not the UK Government or Parliament. The European Parliament has a petitions system:
http://www.europarl.europa.eu/atyourservice/en/20150201PVL00037/Petitions
Alternatively, you could start a new petition calling on the UK Government to work with other EU member states to change the law on this.
