>On Sunday, a man was forcibly dragged off a United flight headed from Chicago to Louisville after he refused to give up his seat to a United employee who “needed to be in Louisville” for a flight the following day, The Courier-Journal reports.
>Passenger Audra Bridges, who uploaded a video of the incident to Facebook, told the newspaper that United initially offered customers $400 and a hotel room if they offered to take a flight the next day at 3pm. Nobody chose to give up the seat that they paid for, so United upped the ante to $800 after passengers boarded, announcing that the flight would not leave until four stand-by United employees had seats. After there were still no takers, a manager allegedly told passengers that a computer would select four passengers to be kicked off the flight.
>The man in the video apparently claimed to be a doctor who had appointments with patients the next morning. After he refused to give up his seat, Bridges says a security official threw him “against the armrest before dragging him out of the plane.” According to Bridges, the seemingly disoriented man came back onto the plane with blood on his face and the crew asked passengers to go back to the gate so that United crew could “tidy up” the plane.

Jack Sanders
Not overbooked the flight?
Hunter Walker

Austin Rogers
>le based Asians xD so BRO TIER they're basically white!
Caleb Carter
The airline should have the sense to not overbook or at least not check in/board the passengers selected for boarding. Also, getting a bunch of strongmen to manhandle a paying customer is stupid for business.
Ryan Bell
Still an arrogant cunt who needed his ass beat
James Ortiz
I would have killed myself when presented with such a bad service.
Nicholas Price
>Doctor who wants to simply take his flight that he paid for is arrogant
alright dude
Jose Collins
>hey we know you payed for this flight but fuck you get violently dragged off because some other guy has a plane to fly tomorrow Literally mob rule
Oliver Jackson
>Ok dickhead what would you have done? Not taking the seats from paying customers.
Kevin Brown
Regardless of the passenger's race, the airline fucked up big time here. There's no excuse for how they handled the incident.
Brandon Russell
>he was an Asian Doctor Asians are still shitskins, you slant-eyed genetic reject.
Asher Ward
He could have 1. accepted 800 bucks and a free hotel, or 2. accepted his bad luck when he lost the seat lottery.
Either way he's a fucking retard mong and deserved to be beat down.

Really faggot? you're gonna remove paying customer with force because you are too retarded as a company to book them a flight on time?

You are a shitskin if you endorse this kind of shitty india tier service. Not even in my country this happens.

You're dumb. You're fake news.
Jackson Mitchell
Good. The travel meme needs to die.
Liam Jones
Time for a big fat fucking lawsuit.
I hope that chink gets a few hundred million out of this.
Juan Johnson
What I find baffling is that nobody jumped at a chance of 400 bucks for basically a half day of leisure. Not to mention 800. I can not believe they ALL had high paying, important business obligations. I mean even if you work a joe job there, you go "sorry the fucks overbooked the plane, i had to stay there for the night. Sorry boss." WTF.
Luke Wright
>wanting to get what you paid for means you deserve to get eaten in front of people and dragged off a plane Kek, you would've walked out like a cuck faggot, at least this guy had the balls to stay in his seat.
Brayden Jones
What horseshit, hope he sues and wins.
Ian Rivera
I hope you guys know this is practically sharia law at work
Nicholas Ramirez
>accepted his bad luck when he lost the seat lottery. This is not an option you dumb cuck.
Isaiah Bell
Hey fucktards it's the companies plane and they did a fuck up. Clearly they needed the employees onboard so take the free hotel stay and the money and fuck off or you're going to get thrown off
Evan Martinez
>airline companies
>not complete frauds that had to be bailed out by tax dollars on multiple occasions
High speed rail in US when
Ethan Reed
that nigga just won the lottery
Xavier Gray
>ukuck shit talking a country infinitely more free, safe, and enjoyable than his I'd rather be kicked off a plane than ran over by a truck.
Hunter Thompson
I hope he sues and wins millions. Fuck airlines and the shit they try to pull.
Ian Sullivan
You can get more from a lawsuit, they want you to settle with those accommodations so you don't sue them
Grayson Phillips
Kill yourself
Julian Ward
>Americans refusing to make $800 in an instant Why am I not surprised?
Josiah Cox
800 is nothing. They should've raised it to 1200 or 1500. Someone would have taken it at that point.
Daniel Gonzalez
Not politics Sage
Anthony Cooper
Stupid nog should have followed the orders of the police no one volunteered so a computer randomly chose seat numbers he got picked and he shouldn't have been a dumb chimp about it
Gabriel Cook
the 800 bucks is vouchers for a new plane ticket you retard
and you can only use it on the absolute worst flight times within like a couple weeks of getting kicked off
Kayden Torres
>800 and a hotel room Why did nobody take it? That's a good deal. Very dumb, thus is like the airline version if eminent domain, not the right time to take a stand
Brody Gonzalez
Fuck you (((Turton))), no free clicks you cunt.
Angel Wood
We aren't exactly in vacation season. Plus, people plainly don't like disruptions to their schedule, no matter what they get out of it.
Andrew Hall
if i was this guy, i'd be lining up the biggest fucking lawsuit. there is no way this was legal for the airlines to do, and then to assault the guy on top of it all is just ludicrous.
Owen Rogers

Owen Sullivan

Nathan Bailey
Oh yeah because they couldn't just ask someone else who doesn't have a job to get off or anything. Are you this fucking dumb mate? Just because there's violence against a gook doesn't mean justice was served.
John Howard
>pay for flight >do nothing wrong >get beat up & dragged out of plane
If this isn't an open & shut million dollar lawsuit I don't know what is.
Brayden Ross
Everyone wants to get their flights out of the way, and it's likely the airline will stuff you in some third-rate hotel.
Tyler Johnson
United doesn't give actual cash. They give you shitty vouchers valued at $400/$800 for flights you probably will never need to go on.
Asher Ward
I doubt it was $800 cash, probably $800 airline credit or some other worthless shit.
Chase Watson
thanks for the (((you)))s, faggots.
i thought nips were the jews of the east? who the fuck would turn down 800 bucks and a free hotel, free food and a night on the town for a fucking cramped seat?
you're all poorfags i bet.
Jeremiah Moore
You're one of the employees or their son aren't you? I wish you'd kill yourself from the embarassment.
Noah Morgan
Lick the boot because I'm a bootlicking cuck
Then send my first born son to die for Israel
Jack Cooper
damn I would have taken the $800, but fuck I take that beating that huge as settlement tyvm.
Evan Fisher
americans are far too arrogant and self absorbed to think about doing something that isn't them getting their way 100% of the time
Grayson Davis
I value my day at being worth 2000 dollars. if the airline doesn't want to pay it, fuck them, I made a legally binding business agreement with them and if they violate it without my consent I'll see them in court.
Angel Allen
>Ok dickhead what would you have done?
First come first served, the man was already seated in the fucking plane.
Isn't there an extra seat in the crew cabin?
Dominic Martinez
Its $800 airline credit. They don't give money. That's why no one took it.
United Airlines is about to get fucked very, very hard by: Doctor Doctors who run the medical facility His patients Board of Medicine FAA
This stunt just cost United Airlines $20 million dollars.
Brody Nelson
>he fell for the space x high speed rail Jew meme Look it up, it failed utterly, the test shuttles all went like 20 mph, or didn't move at all and traveled about a quarter of a mile. It's impossible, plain and simple
Andrew Green
holy shit that man is going to get so fucking rich because of this
William Howard
>800 bucks is only voucher for another flight
yeah calling bullshit. perhaps your shit education is the reason you missed the part where they directly told them THEY WOULD PAY FOR THEIR FLIGHT THE NEXT MORNING
fucking dumb poor nigger
Joseph Foster
>United Serves him right.
Levi Brown
>who the fuck would turn down 800 bucks and a free hotel, free food and a night on the town for a fucking cramped seat? A doctor who makes more than that in a week probably.
Tyler King
Well I'm not flying united in the future.
Eli Lopez
They clearly don't know the law because I would take the free accommodations and sew them
Jackson Cox
Am I missing something? $800 is two hundred dollarydoos over the most expensive in-country flight you can buy right now, and it's a holiday week. Why would you not take the money and tell your boss "oh they dragged me off the plane, I'm sorry I'm working to get the next flight in as soon as possible"?
Henry Gray
I don't why but this is the funniest thing i've read on pol today.
Joseph Moore
>when life gives you lemons sue the lemon tree >t. americans

I would have fired them for not being at their job on time.

Hudson Johnson
>he thinks I'm a gook >is almost certainly a Manley beta who posts on Sup Forums to play internet alpha and make himself cry a little less at night Start working out, stop starting internet fights
Asher Reed
Also for all you morons saying it's 800 bucks, it's not its CREDIT voucher to the airline that you basically can never use. That's why no one wants it.
Then when you try to use the voucher they bump you again because it's a second class ticket.
Isaiah Williams
>"needed to be in Louisville" Fuck off snowflakes. Sorry, but airline fucked up and hopefully sued, it'll be even worse if the guy was telling the truth.
No one was obliged to forfeit the seat. If the airline was that desperate they could hire a jet or offer flight discounts on future purchases etc.
This was some jew shit.
Caleb Torres
This would never happen in a civilized country
Brandon Lewis
>kick doctor of flight to make room for employees to save a few shekels >blows up in your face, now going to lose millions
Gavin Howard
I swear, burgerclaps are getting worse and worse
Carter Lee
He's a doctor with patients to attend to the next day, he'd be facing an opportunity cost of over $800 by missing his flight.
Bentley Cook
kicked out the fatest passengers
Ryder Cruz
it wasn't cash you idiot, it was essentially just store credit for the airlines. thats why no one wanted it, completely useless.
Jacob Morgan
>flying commercial >2017 There is no reason to ever do this, take a month-long wagon-train it's still preferable to flying even if you lose half your party to cholera.
Ian Clark
>accepted his bad luck when he lost the seat lottery
yeah, bad luck. he's going to be a multi-millionaire now. how unfortunate
Kevin Scott
how do you accept the accommodations and still get beat up by security...?
Jaxson Walker
So much for the right to bear arms. Guy should have unloaded the clip.
Joseph Peterson
because now instead of getting 800, he's going to get millions
Lucas Young

Isaac Allen

We're not Russians ready to whore ourselves out for $400/$800 at any chance.
