His lawyer may very well create enough publicity that United will settle rather than have this be in the news for months.
May, but he certainly will not get the airlines. Also, I doubt his settlement will be anywhere near what he, or his lawyer, may be anticipating.
That is and was his attoney’s intention as well as the jerk who started it. Pay day for everyone.
Its almost guaranteed United will settle.
Not many subjects get the extended news treatment. Abusive airline stories pop up about once each 5-10 years. None of them have real staying power.
The fact that unitd has said they will not do things this way again, plus changing their policies regarding overbooking, plus bribing the entire planeload of passengers with 9-10 grand apiece, says hes got a great case.
United will settle, no doubt about that. The settlement amount won’t be revealed either
