Little surprised at all the whining on FR....this moron is the only one to blame for this whole soap opera. He should have had the sense and the class to get up and leave quietly. People are bumped all the time. Put on your big boy pants, grow up, and suck it up.
THat is not how it works. There are specific policies regarding passengers being refused boarding in the event of oversold flights. There are specific policies regarding when a passenger can be removed involuntarily from the plane for reasons beside oversold flights. The flight was not oversold. The passenger had already boarded. There was no act by the passenger prior to the random selection to justify his removal. There is not even a policy that allows from random selection. That man was under no obligation to surrender his seat and UA had no right to demand so.
UA was in the wrong. They should have found alternate travel arrangements for the four Republic crew members.
I agree completely, and now the idiot Dr's dirty laundry is exposed to everyone in the USA (and China). That's how stoopit this guy was for not getting off that plane.
