No video. But it seems the problem is solved. United doesnt have to deal with them they dont have to be tempted to get back on a united plane. Its classless to bring a 2 year old on a plane. Have your old enought reliatives fly to see you..

Im fed up with flying zoo class. Its time for the airlines to have a dress code, make people wear their shoes while on the plane. In fact make them wear close toed shoes. How can anyone get off a plane in a hurry in flip flops??

the libratarian experimant has gone on long enough. Its time people start following laws and rules and stop acting like they are the only person on the planet that has a problem/ problems / urgent needs/ have someplace to go/ have kids/ are late...Your kid is your problem. I had nothing to do with it. Start by respecting the stranger ahead of you. You have no clue what they are going thru. Quit whining and stop sueing every time someone or something makes you mad

I like garlic salad, but I would never take one onto a crowded airliner.

“I’ve got a completely different take on this. United Airlines can impose any stupid rules they want — and for any stupid reason they want to impose them.”

They could do what you suggest if they were a “contract carrier”.

But they aren’t, they offer services to the general public and fall under the rules applied to “common carriers”.

“Common carriers provide essential public services and thus can face more state and interstate regulations and more government scrutiny.

“Generally, a common carrier is one that must provide its services to anyone willing to pay its fees unless it has good grounds to refuse.

No doubt.

I’ve heard there is a lot of empty space on planes now anyway.

Our modern version of bread and circuses is like nothing humanity has ever experienced in all of recorded history. It’s terrible but I think maybe we really haven’t experienced a fraction of what might be tolerated under our current societal conditions.

Move to NH where we have a governor who is sane.

Here are his mask recommendations and the Deaf and hard of hearing are mentioned and given exemptions.

I thought if you were eating you didn’t have to wear a mask.

Simply snack the entire flight.

I’ll step up and just say it. Flying aint for everyone. And 2 year olds who cant follow the rules and their parents shouldnt fly commercial. And Im a strong believer who thinks the entire mask thing is b. S. I think afew people shouldnt fly. Like that woman who opens a gatl6ic salad on the plane and starts chowing down, or the perd6on with all their luggage who drags a huge back pack, a carry on and a shoulder bag and proceefs to clog ip the islr, trying to shove all that into thr overhead. .

Yuo ne6ed an edi6tor.
