I will not fly united ever again. Even it means adding hours to my weekly commute. Called to cancel united credit card citing treating their passengers inhumanely as the reason for card closure.

I fly Delta because that's the only nonstop to DTW from LAX. I hate UA though my family's used them for years. To me they're nothing better than a budget airline (probably because I never had status). It is what it is. Honestly just get over it and deal with more pressing matters in your life. Reconsider your happiness. Ask if you've been a good partner. Are you saving enough for retirement?

Agreed. I don't fly United as their routes don't cover my client city but I will make damn sure to never fly United.

I don't think it's necessary to get violent. Unless you've been living under a rock, police brutality has been an issue for a while now. Don't blame UA, let's ask why it's okay for police to escalate with impunity

Because united was the one who grabbed the passenger...

So how would you remove a noncompliant passenger other than calling law enforcement? Let's say the voucher idea is moot because it was currently against policy. Not an ideal policy but a policy put in place yet shortsighted to the circumstances we face today

So we are going to argue semantics? The realities of air travel have limitations. Sorry if they had to revoke one person's "confirmed" ticket so that the crew can go on to service 350 more. Shit happens in reality and sorry if everything isn't up to the perfect, ideal world you prescribed.

@P2, I guess you don't fly much. They don't give you cash, they give you an airline voucher which is only redeemable for the airline.

And I'd be pissed with you SA1. But total outrage that they're outside of their rights and obligations to try to get that flight underway is a stretch. They might've overstepped it, sure. I'd blame the individual employees and the police far more so than condemning the entire company for being shitty. I think the policies are fair. $1000 usually works. I'll take the vouchers and hotel night. I get shit happens and we should all be treated with respect, which is what UA and the police should've prioritized here. It is a sorry situation that didn't happen, but throwing the baby out with the bath water isn't the right response in my view

like

One of the arguments I'm hearing is that It's ok to bump somebody involuntary from a confirmed flight as long as they compensate with a voucher. My question is, what if the passenger really had to be at the destination because of an emergency such as sick kids, a job interview, attending funeral, etc. do you guys think a $1000 voucher is still worth? Especially for a doctor who already makes lot of money.
