| + | A '''windy booking''' is a [[freight]] booking made by a skipper or freight forwarder to reserve space but not actually having a specific cargo at the time the booking is made. Carriers often overbook a vessel by 10-20% in recognition that windy booking cargo will not actually ship.<ref>U.S. Department of Transportation Maritime Administration [http://www.marad.dot.gov/publications/glossary/glossary.html]</ref> | ||
