"In the context of the airline, let’s dissect “entitled.” You’re d*mn right I’m entitled. When you pay for a service, you are entitled to that service. It is known as “contract”. And I don’t really care if the government says it’s legal for them to drop people involuntarily. The government is no arbiter of morals. The truth is that in any other industry, if I pay for something I’m ENTITLED to it. And if people revoke it after payment, it’s called fraud and there are all kinds of ugly consequences."

Bears repeating, loud and clear.

Isn't Federal Regulation of industry just great?

This is a good read and a different perspective.

fraud?....doubt it.....the business broke its "contract" and paid the customer back, with a bonus....

a contract is a two way street.

Bears repeating. The airlines have purchased enough legislooters to distort what is customary contract law in their favor. Very few other businesses could get away with what is routine for airlines.
