Anyone who takes a plane these days can relate to Dr Dao's story.  United has brought this on themselves.  [b]I used to fly all the time on United and still have over 200k miles with them[/b].  I used to feel a good deal of loyalty towards them, but I am just done, done, done at this point. [/quote]

pp here.  I did too and never had a problem.  Have they really gotten that bad?

FWIW, I've flown hundreds of thousands of miles over forty years and have never got bumped from a flight.  I can't excuse what UAL did, but it seems to occur to no one in this 75 page thread that none of this would have happened if [b]Dr. Dao had just GTFO the aircraft when asked to do so.  What an attitude. [/b] [/quote]

This is the thing, someone up thread said he did get off but returned back to his seat after second thoughts. [/quote]

He initially offered to be bumped but declined when he found out that he wouldn't get out until the next afternoon, as he had to be at work in the morning.  And to the other pp, none of this would have happenned if United had increased the incentives they offered until someone accepted it.  United had plenty of choices here - they blew it.

Apparently things went downhill for United after the merger with Continental.  I haven't flown much since then. [/quote]
