So, you are homophilic?
Again. Ny post for one. Dao is a queer, a mental illness. He sold prescriptions to meet up with another coprophiliac to vector diseases by fecal-oral transmission. This makes him a drug dealer and a huckster. It’s a federal crime. How many times? , you can contact a bud with access to his criminal record.
‘So, you are homophilic?’
You are trolling. I’ve answered this question twice.
Here’s the question you haven’t answered once. Where did you get the following information:
‘The passenger hauled off a United flight is a lung doctor with ... a history of angry outbursts’
Do you know what a lie is? Do you know what a smear is? Did you make this charge about angry outbursts up out of whole cloth, or do you have a source?
Posting lies is not a conservative value. Liberals lie and smear. Conservatives are honest and tell the truth.
Look it up yourself and stop with the name calling—this is an adult forum. Are you from Massachusetts or what? Nobody is lying about your deep interest in the male queer with a record of felonies.
Not content to lie about and smear Dao, now you are attempting to lie about and smear me.
When will you stop with this disgusting behavior?
You missed the point.
The problem is you used the word “seller”, no one sold anyone anything. There was no exchange of possession.
“BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA the writer of this needs to look and see the 10s of MILLIONS of lost revenues, and Brand Value that United has lost over this... This writer is an IDIOT.”
So, you’re saying there are now empty seats where there was occupied seats? If so, it would be you that is the idiot for making a false claim.
“Soon, some of them would be throwing their friends and relatives off the plane for profit. “
Not to mention the public would know the rule and refuse to leave until some customary price, say $10,000, was reached.
You. Missed. The. Point.
Public concensus is not an argument. I never called it an argument.
I called it a ***problem.***
For whom is it a problem?
Not for Dao; public sentiment is vastly, wildly, overwhelmingly in his favor.
The party with the ***problem*** is United. Granted, they are in grovel mode, and for quite some time each day brought a fresh apology. (Munoz even met with a delegation of Chinese, to try and persuade them United isn’t racist.)
Despite the groveling, United still has a problem. The public perceives them to be goon-thugs, who would rather put an elderly man in the hospital than negotiate with a willing couple. That’s a *problem* United will be saddled with for some time to come.
As well they should be.
14 CFR 250.9 - Written explanation of denied boarding compensation and boarding priorities, and verbal notification of denied boarding compensation.
0 to 1 hour arrival delay No compensation.
1 to 2 hour arrival delay 200% of one-way fare (but no more than $675).
Over 2 hours arrival delay 400% of one-way fare (but no more than $1,350).
People should read the law. Laws are written in English.
“The goons called by United didn’t have the authority to arrest anybody.”
To a 12 year old, maybe, but we adults know better.
“All the Freepers here arguing UAL was right miss the point that it could happen to any of us tomorrow “
Sure it could, but do you really think the sheeple that allow strip searches by the TSA will lift a finger about this topic?
“Being in the industry I’ve read that and it goes back to when people were booking seats on different flights but not actually paying for them until they arrive at the check-in desk so airlines were flying with empty non-revenue seats.”
However, if airlines sold seats and made them non-refundable the people would bitch even louder.
“An Airline does not have an absolute right to kick a passenger of off their plane.”
Actually, they do, and it is you that has not learned a thing.
“Their actions were legal, but stupid. Both parties handled this as poorly as humanly possible.”
Absolutely. United could have simply upped the ante to get another passenger off the plane or had that last remaining flight crew take a later flight. ANYTHING but eject a passenger.
Dao, of course, was a typical liberal child that threw a temper tantrum.
They do. There are three categories of seats to purchase and the cheapest ones are non-refundable. You can buy refundable seats but they’re the premium ones.
“Dao had to see patients at the hospital at 8am the next morning. He faced professional repercussions if he failed to make his rounds.”
While, child, that’s why professionals don’t cut their flights so close to such responsibilities.
Excellent William’s quote.
Again, you’re thinking the same crowd that stood in line to get strip searched by the TSA are going to lift a single finger about this issue.
I know that. I meant if the airlines made all seats pay-up-front and non-refundable. They people would scream for alternatives. Well, that was the way it was and the customer got their “super saver” fares. I am old enough to remember when that switch happened and everyone thought the customer was an idiot for it. The customer was lured in with the idea that an empty seat would be sold cheap, but with strict conditions. We all knew those conditions would become normal.
