“United may have just bankrupted thenselves.”

The guy who put the story out to the media is a journalist for the Washington Post. He was on the plane. His wife took the videos.

This was NOT United Airlines. It was Republic Airways. Big difference. Different CEO...different management, different employees. They’re not interchangeable. It’s a regional airline that also serves American and Delta.

> This was NOT United Airlines. <

I’ve read that elsewhere, and I just don’t get it. Every major news source is saying United Airlines, and the United Airlines CEO has issued a statement about the incident.

So either it’s a United flight, or some other flight that contracted out to United. Or am I missing something here?

Then why did United issue an apology?

Yeah but the ticket and the Airplane say “United” so it’s a distinction without a difference.
