[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was once on a United flight out of the Dulles in 2000 (so pre 9/11) that was supposed to be a red eye to Europe, plane boarded and then nothing happened.  the crew mysteriously disappeared.  The crew abandoned the plane and "walked off" in a labor dispute, leaving hundreds of passengers on board absolutely clueless what to do or what was going on.  We didn't know if they were coming back, who was in charge, were we supposed to get off.  Someone started smoking and another person literally broke into the food in the back and started passing it around.  Back then people didn't really have cell phones.  At midnightt police boarded the plane. at 2am the flight was originally cancelled and we were allowed off the plane into the terminal. It was a cluster F of all cluster fs. United got vans and drove all of us to a hotel about a mile away and had to make a special flight for us the next day at 11am (which is a really random time to leave on a flight like that, they are always red eyes). I will never forget that United crew left an airplane with the passengers. I assume after 9/11 this would never happen. But it never ceases to amaze me the dumb shit United does.  I would rather deal with Spirit Air than United any day.[/quote]

Not Spirit! I could not get a live person to talk to us. Fucking airlines.[/quote]
