When someone buys a plane ticket, there’s fine print says you can be moved.
Airlines are supposed to say why they want you to move,
and
Ann spent extra for more legroom; she’s tall.

“After 28 hours, Delta Air Lines only answer for why it made Ann Coulter give up her prepaid seat is I dont know
When you buy an airline ticket, you are entering into a contract which allows the airline to make you give up your seat.
However, if and when the airline does make you give up your seat, it is supposed to offer a reasonable explanation.
Ann Coulter is tall, and she didnt want to get a fatal blood clot from sitting in a cramped airline seat (this medical condition is called Deep vein thrombosis), so she chose to spend extra money in order to get extra legroom on her Delta Air Lines flight.
Delta made Coulter give up her prepaid seat. When Coulter asked why, the flight attendants answer was
I dont know.
28 hours after the incident, Delta has still not offered Coulter any other explanation for its actions.
If Delta did have a legitimate reason for doing what it did, it should say what that reason was.
Otherwise, Delta will have given the impression that one or more of its employees simply did it out of some personal vendetta that they have against Coulter.”
EVERYBODY needs to resist that verbiage.
Just because something is in boilerplate doesn’t mean it should be adhered to. Otherwise, why can’t they just insert a sentence in page 223 or your mortgage saying they can take your house back anytime they want?
Nope, we need a nationwide revolt against the airlines- NO reseating, NO not letting you fly on the flight you booked without SEVERE penalties and a host of holy horrors to pound the crap out of these bastards. They are the enemy- they need to be whacked and whacked hard in print, on the web and in the courts.
If you sell someone a contract to do something at that time you should *HAVE* to fulfill it, period, no exceptions, no excuses and penalties expensive enough to make buying a few extra planes trivial.
