As said on B2, this should have happened before he boarded. That's how it normally works. - ty97 Apr 10, 06:48 9
- I think someone is getting fired for even letting all the people on the plane w/o the bumpee being bumped pre board - Epiphany Apr 10, 06:57
- this is obviously just 'mho', but, they should just keep upping the offers. I know they got to $800, but you know what? you keep going up till some - Andie Apr 10, 06:49 7
  - Yeah, I don't really get how at a customer service level you go from offering incentives to randomly picking people to remove - oblique, SuperFeud Champion Apr 10, 06:56 6
    - From their perspective, it's putting employees on a flight so they can serve more passengers the following day. -- nm - Roger More Apr 10, 07:18 3
      - bet it cost them more for this shit than just buying those 4 employees tickets on another airline :) -- nm* - oblique, SuperFeud Champion Apr 10, 07:20 2

        AA does, but the UA flight was delayed (and last flight of night) and wound up leaving after the AA flight. - ty97 Apr 10, 07:46
