Flying is a privilege, not a right.
***************
Once I buy a ticket , pass through security , am assigned seating and board the aircraft it is NOT A PRIVILEDGE... I paid for the right to be taken to my destination.

UNITED PURPOSELY FAILED TO PROPERLY EXPLAIN HOW BADLY THEY WERE IN A BIND TO GET THAT CREW MOVED TO AVOID HAVING TO OFFER MORE TO ANY PASSENGER THAT MIGHT VOLUNTARILY VACATE.

I’m guessing you go along with the states mumbo jumbo that travel on the roads is a priviledge too... that we don’t have a right to move about the country.

Could be. Let's have a look at the fine print on those documents he carried.. boarding pass and ticket and such.

Maybe something he clicked "I agree" on for online booking.

You're discussing what you think should be.. not what IS.

People have become such sheeple in the whole Western World! I think the whole TSA process is abusive and few stop to question “why are we doing this and what caused this problem?” We don’t fight these abuses. United and American have become completely more Nazi-like. They start trying to bully you about your carry-on bag before you board and when you say something like, “I brought this bag on the same flight 2 weeks ago”, you have to worry that they will say you are a disruptive passenger and deny you boarding. It’s pretty bad!

You make a good point. Money talks. United could have solved the probably, and attracted more customers, if they ran a positive lottery.

    Run it like a Lottery
  1. Give real money instead of vouchers.
  2. Keep increasing the lottery amount until the requisite number of passengers take the cash.

Another good point; to what extent do we have the right to travel through the United States ? Is it a constitutional right ?
