Can anyone, with even a little bit of humor, describe the stereotypical flier of each airline? Delta, United, American, etc.

American is gritty, blue collar worker. United is the frat guy who thinks he’s hot shit but is really basic, Delta is an old beauty pageant contestant

you don't choose airline, airline chooses you

My stereotype of United is that they randomly picked an old Asian guy and dragged him off the plane, because they oversold their tickets. And, their planes are so old. In a nutshell, a racist company with very old planes.

I believe A1 is referring to the time United dragged an old Asian man off a flight, not typical age of passengers

They'll mostly line up with city/regional stereotypes...

Just heard a fun one: Delta fliers are the pretentious overpaid fliers that will pay more for the “Delta experience”

Absolutely. Businesses can be ethical by treating people the way they’d want to be treated. 3 ways Airbnb can do this: Aggressively fight fraudulent listers, let Airbnb members control their data (allow data requests/permissioning/deletion from any state or country), and oh - make it easy for people to get their money back if their travel was affected by covid-19. How not to be ethical: marketing ethics vs living them.
