United To Pay $2.25M Fine, Won’t Be Charged In Case That Benefitted Offiicial
I’m not the best speller in the land, but that’s pretty glaring, TPM.
And so United customers and shareholders get doubly screwed; First for having to cover the 17 month costs of the airline flying a money-losing flight that essentially constituted a political bribe, and second they now have to cover the cost of the federal fine. And nobody goes to jail! Only in America!
Doesn’t surprise me one bit. Untied is hands-down the worst airline I have ever flown on, and I vow to never fly them again. Even the rank and file seem to know that it is a lost cause, and they don’t seem to give a damn.
However, if you are itching and aching to have your baggage lost, I heartily recommend Untied! They will not disappoint you, and when you express your dissatisfaction, you will meet face-to-face with Supreme Disinterest. As in, “well what did you expect? We’re Untied!”
I used to fly United all the time until about eight years ago when I finally decided that I’d had enough of their incompetence, poor service and, and, and . . . .I could go on forever. I vowed to never fly them or their surrogates (who are even worse) again.
