I saw these folks on Fox News yesterday, and have ZERO sympathy for them.
They gambled and LOST.
Not my trouble, not United Airlines problem, not the American public’s problem.
UA did a good thing, but they didn’t have to and unfairly using the press to EXTORT freebies from UA is unconscionable.
Exactly. Not only do I have no sympathy for them, I have scorn and disdain for them.
These kind of people are the reason why perks like JetBlue Buddy Passes are revoked. The benefit isn’t worth the negative media attention, even if it’s just once.
