    This was an unbelievably despicable and tragic situation.
    The flight was overbooked and passengers were asked for volunteers to rebook for the next day. He was a surgeon who had surgery booked for the next morning so couldn't volunteer.
    Because no one else volunteered, they arbitrarily chose him, despite knowing his situation. He was badly injured. Passengers were horrified and, yes, he did sue.

    Imagine booking a hotel room. You're in the hotel room, on the bed, ready to sleep. Front desk calls and tells you you need to get out because they have corporate needing a room. Hotel tells you they'll provide you a room the next night instead. They call the cops to threaten to drag you out of the room you paid for, the one whose bed you've already settled on with your belongings already there. Then, the cops drag you out of your bed and throw you out of the room. DO YOU SEE HOW RIDICULOUS THAT SOUNDS? That's what's happening here!

    So they offer $800 as compensation to 4 volunteers to leave, prolly half the air ticket price, to make room for 4 employees deadheading, when all paying passengers had already boarded, then when no one volunteers, they "re-accomodate" 4 people off the plane, 1 forcibly because he didn't want to go, and he got beated up. United CEO didn't apologise, pinning the blame on the brutalised passenger at first, then issuing an insincere apology when United shares dip by $150 million. Well, United is never going to be overbooked again

      true, but more importantly he was forced to make way for 4 United employees, and he had already boarded, not bumped at the ticket counter because the plane was already full. The low compensation doesn't even cover half the air ticket price, so United is entirely at fault.

    I have a few questions here.
    1. How is the 4 passengers randomly picked? 2 out of the 4 that was being booted was a young couple. Does that sound random?
    2. Where is the code to the system for random picking?
    3. Why couldn't the 4 workers of United go in the next flight out?
    4. As any business owner/Doctor or someone with a job that is time/schedule sensitive, would you take a 800 dollar voucher and risk your job security/reputation? Keep in mind the next flight out is the next day in the afternoon. Meaning you can not fulfill your duties/errands for that day.
    5.What if you can't take anymore time off for the rest of the year and your voucher expires? What if the voucher is non transferable?
    6. Next flight out was the next day at 2pm, who will accommodate the overnight hotel stay/cab fair?Are you willing to spend the night on the floor at the airport?
    7. Why didn't United pick the last 4 people that purchased there tickets instead of random selection? It's only fair for ticket holders that made ticket purchases months in advance.
    8. If it is passengers are randomly picked, what about family members with kids? I've seen family members with kids have more priority because they do not want to be split apart, which means there is no random selection.
    As a avid business traveler, these are the questions I ask myself. Everyone knows that airport/flight cancellation/delays are the worst and you have no control over that, but being forcefully kicked out with valid paper work after being seated is wrong period.

      Frigman Gaming Frigman Gaming They didn't pay for everything. I have see a news that says the flight give passenger coupons instead of cash after all these. The coupon was 50 dollar each in total of 400 dollar and only valid for one year. That means if you want to use all of it you have to be on that flight eight times in a year . Who wants to be on that stupid plane for eight times after all this things happened.

      yuan it's a voucher which is similar to credit. Most airlines has a non-transferable ticket policy which means the person that recieved the voucher is the only person that can use it. You can not change the name on the voucher or resell the credit to someone you know. So basically if you can not travel up to 800 worth of ticket/price in the next year, you lose all that credit. And most airlines will not accommodate hotels/cab fare for overnight unless you are a premium/business member. You are basically shit out of luck paying your own hotel overnight/cab fare.

    The passenger has every right to keep his seat. UA should overbook on its own risk. If they cannot get enough people to cancel or give up their seats, they have to do what ever it takes to get those seat while keeping everyone happy, BUT THEY DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMOVE ANYONE BY FORCE.
    This barbarous action should not be tolerated in any civilized society.
    The reason the airlines lobbied for the right to overbooking itself is because some passengers have last minute cancellations and the airlines would have to overbook to recover the lost fair.
    That is false. The cancelled tickets are paid. Even if the passenger gets refund, it's from the premium for a refundable ticket.

      Boarding Priorities - If a flight is Oversold, no one may be denied boarding against his/her will until UA or other carrier personnel first ask for volunteers who will give up their reservations willingly in exchange for compensation as determined by UA.

    So if a customer either can’t or simply doesn’t want to give up their paid seat, it’s perfectly ok to violently remove them? Even though the airline caused the problem by overbooking the flight? What other business gets to behave like this? “Sorry, we sold too many gallons of milk today, either give us back the one you already paid for, or we’ll send someone to beat you and then you’ll be arrested.”

    How come people are more angry with the airline than the officer who actually assaulted him?

  • @ZanderPingu
    @ZanderPingu 7 років тому +37

    The overbooking point is a red herring here, and is a clever distraction by United which most media outlets seem to be falling for.
    He wasn't denied boarding due to too many paying passengers turning up, he was already on the plane in his seat, as were all the passengers on that flight.
    United failed to adequately plan their staff transport in time and shortly before departure decided to fly additional staff as they were needed in another location.
    That's United's problem, but they chose to use the overbooking clause in their ticketing contract to make it their customers' problem.
    It's clearly their prerogative if they choose to forcibly remove a passenger, and clearly their CEO feels quite comfortable about that. At least now everyone knows that's the type of company culture that exists there and can make future purchasing decisions with that in mind.

      That was unbelievable. To take a seated passenger off because they had preference for another customer. To facilitate looking after their favoured customer the airline had police violently evict and assault a fully paid and seated passenger.
      Russian military couldn’t have done a more vicious job than American cops and the corporation airline they work for.

United didn't even apologize for hurting him, and only for overbooking. That's not ok!!! They should have offered more money for peoplet to volunteer to get off the plane instead. If they offered enough, SOMEONE would have said yes, but they didnt. United stuffed 4 extra people on the plane themselves, they should have been more responsible.
