Your caps lock key is apparently still on from earlier. Look again on the middle left side of your keyboard and you can click it again to turn it off.
If it won't turn off, you can go to Walmart and buy a new keyboard or go to Best Buy and have Geek Squad replace the broken keyboard on your laptop
Not enough seating, prepare for a beating.
Next when did did UA become aware of the need to move that crew?
Was it before they boarded all the people, after they boarded all the people, etc?
I know, I know, the voices tell you to type something and you have to do it no matter how stupid.

Apparently at one of the busiest airports in the world which doubles as United’s home base, there was no other plane traveling to Louisville that day (or, at a push, Indianapolis, Cincinnati, or Lexington).
Let’s assume the original flight took off as booked and scheduled. How long would a deadhead crew need to wait? An hour? Three? Is it United’s position that their allocation of flight crews to flights, routes and/or airports was being conducted on such a razor thin margin of error?

Legal or not, it was a scummy thing to do.
Airline employees are supremely arrogant.
They could have rented a car and driven there in 4 hours................
RE: Why are you yelling and complaining. Your United stock took a quick beating, but has pretty much rebounded.
If I were an opportunist, and I had a need to travel, I would fly United right now. The likelihood of them treating you rudely at this point in time is VERY LOW.

Change “United Airlines” to “Dr Dao Airlines” sounds like what is about to happen.
Judge Napolitano said the lawyer’s press conference was a dress rehearsal for opening arguments to the jury, and that those arguments are “devestating”.
Do you think it was not written by lawyers?
Perhaps they had Cindy the receptionist write it?
United: we beat the passengers, not the competition.
Yeah, as I am reading it United had the right to kick someone off of an “oversold flight”. That’s what’s in the law is that exact phrase.
They do not have the right to bump someone for an employee who has not paid to be on the flight.
If getting their employees to another airport was all so critical then they could have put those employees on another airline’s available flight.
Or they could have chartered a private jet for them which would have been cheaper than what they’re dealing with now.
The Dr. Dao on the flight is not the same Dr. Dao who’s the pervert. I imagine that’s going to be a different lawsuit.
Not according their contract they don’t.
I wonder if those that support beating someone would say it was ok if it was them having their teeth knocked out and their nose broken.... because it is written!
I am amazed at how many freepers have defended this scumbag. He was refusing to obey lawful directions from law enforcement officers, what were they supposed to do, just leave him there because he didn't want to go? Everyone seems to ignore the fact they had him off the plane and he snuck back in. He got what he deserved but I expect the lawyers will make sure he gets what he doesn't deserve.
Beating isn’t enough, bring out the scorpions!
