TL;DR they changed their carrier contract to minimize or zero their liability when they screw stuff up.

Ex: “We are not liable if: We're late or you don't make your connection, we change the schedule of any flight, we (or our partners) cancel a flight or route, your checked baggage is late (except as required by statute, regulation, or Convention) [or] there are special, incidental or consequential damages because of these changes.”

This article is a flaming piece of garbage written to maximize ad revenue and is the complete opposite of BLUF.

Hope you all are having a great weekend. Just wanted to share a tip for all of those who are looking to connect with former employees - there is a filter function at Linkedin which allows you to do so (and you can combine that with the filter on location - then you can almost always find at least 2-3 people you can reach out to and ask about the firm and practice group you are thinking of lateralling).

Feel free to share any other tip with the fellow fishes!
