On a full flight, it will definitely be an issue.
The best approach is to do all of these:
a) Pick the least crowded travel days you can find (midweek in a non-holiday period is ideal)
b) Fly from an airport that has more plane options to Culebra (meaning either Isla Grande or Fajardo, not SJU) so that if you're bumped from one plane, there are more choices in that same day.
c) For the same reason as #b, reserve the first flight of the day, even if it means staying at a hotel at the airport the night before.
d) Consider flying from Fajardo where things seem to be a bit looser (and cheaper), though you'll have to pay for a taxi. At least on a taxi, you'll be more comfortable than in the plane for that portion of your trip. It's a shorter plane ride from Fajardo.
And Eric, thanks for asking us a question that doesn't come up much on the board. Though it still ranks far below last fall's famous post asking about the regulations regarding how to dispose of a body. But we appreciate new and different!
