The CEO needs to get in front of this instead of accusing the passenger (customer) of wrongdoing.

IDIOTS! Should've upped the price to $5000 & if there is still no takers make it $10,000 tops!

There will definitely be someone who will take the offer!

Color me unsurprised this was United. I drive four hours to El Paso to avoid flying United. Too many bad experiences.

Yep. Heck, people would have been jumping at $2,000.

Oscar Munoz, A Mexican with no remorse over the passenger injury. Who in their right mind would want to be subjected to this kind of physical and mental abuse while engaged in travel. I understand the passengers wife was on the plane too, would you want her to fly ahead and be left behind? The whole thing stinks.
Meanwhile, I had a large latino ransack my wallet because I did not take it out of my pocket and put it in a tray for the x ray. What’s going on?

I continue to be amazed that there are people so stupid they forget every single person now has a camera.

Those three idiot goons, particularly the one throwing punches are royally screwed. There are lawyers lining up to file suit after suit AFTER their done with United.

The amounts are regulated, most they can pay is $1350 for domestic flights. But you point is well taken, they tried to go cheap.
