United's now-infamous slogan, "Fly the friendly skies," is being revamped on social media following the company's latest public relations nightmare.
Users took to Twitter Tuesday to post their own ideas of a more suitable slogan for the airline, using the hashtag #NewUnitedAirlinesMottos.

“We put the hospital in hospitality” LOL
“””Every article says “airline employees”. Were they flight crew or something else?”””
Considering the gross incompetence of the employees at United Airlines from the CEO on down, I fully expect United Airlines beat the crap out of a paying passenger so four United Bureaucratic Pukes could bump after they thumped.
I truly doubt it was four crew members otherwise it would have been so reported at the beginning.
Fox Business is ripping the United CEO a new one at every chance they get today. And the CEO needs to be fired by the Board immediately for being so stupid as to say they were ‘reaccomodating’ the passenger they beat.
So if he’s not a doctor United actions were OK?
The proud bird with the golden tail...
In my world. A ‘doctor’ convicted of trafficking drugs for sex isn’t a ‘doctor’ anymore....
I'm going out on a limb and saying that if the "random passenger" had a name like "Shaneequa Jackson", then perhaps the random drawing might have been quietly done a second time until a safer name had been selected.
Yes. I see you’re thinking farther along in lawsuit territory. Within their rights - what happened with security not employed by them isn’t the thing here, IMO.
So,he’s a doctor that trades drugs for sex, no wonder he was so determined to keep his patients appointments.
I would say, once again, that a total and complete lack of planing on the part of the airline did not in any way justify their actions here.
The airlines action, while it may be in the fine print that they can haul you off the plane because they are total imbeciles who can not figure how to get their crews from point a to point b without hauling YOU out of the seat you have paid for and have already sat there two hours while they were playing playing tiddlywinks, was very very wrong.
Nothing else matters. Not who he was, not who he was on the phone with, not that the pilot was a minority female who had AIDS, nothing.
You tell me. My read is airport security did the damage after enforcing the airline’s rights according to procedure.
I don’t understand this hard-on for the airlines. Lord knows I don’t generally like them at all, but this hysteria over some doctor somebody is just out of hand.
Okay, pump his case up for a bloody nose and busted lip for not obeying rules and due orders he was bound by. Give him 10, 20 - 50 millions of dollars and loss of stock equity in a lawsuit he was on his phone about with his lawyer.. Sure. Go at it. They’ll just increase your next ticket price....sheesh.
BTW, I don't fly unless I have to. Too much of a pain in the neck anymore. And if those employees weren't flight crew, that just adds to my attitude.
I liked ‘come for the seating, stay for the beating’!
Maybe they’ll double their audience and two people will watch?
“We put the hospital in hospitality.”
Yes. Your personal seat is paramount........it’s that way for anybody. Common sense and propriety need not be involved.
Just go United on them....
