Then again, we have heard lots of urban legends, like to cop who rode the debris down from the 82nd floor. No evidence to verify it.
Very unlikely. Unless the boarding pass has been issued, seats are considered available.
Unless you are claiming that holders of boarding passes were issued to dozens of people who were at the terminal and then disappeared.
You don't think this would have uh... ah... er... been noticed by the terminal gate workers?
I didn't see it so can't confirm.
Not true. The "evidence" was a report by a man in a hospital bed who claimed this was what happened to him. ( didn't recall he was a cop ). It was carried live by national TV. I watched it thinking that the guy was either lying or delerious. The news clip ended when his wife in tears rushed in and hugged him.
Even though his report was unbelievable to my knowledge the news people never questioned the veracity of the man.
