[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]United is always the airline I pick last when selecting personal flights.  Unfortunately, it's the airline my work picks most of the time.  The last flight I was on with United (in Feb. '17) was overbooked by 8 people.  I travel a lot for work and the most I've ever seen not show for a flight is 4 people, which was a whole family.

What bugs me about United is how they start their monetary incentive so low.  I mean, you really have to haggle with them more than used car salesmen!  $400?  Really?  I'm not even seriously considering volunteering for anything under $800 and even then I'm probably holding out for at least $1,000.

Delta, who has many shortcomings as well, at least starts their monetary incentive at $800 and goes from there.

But the main reason why most people can't simply volunteer to take a later flight is that their future plans depend on that transportation arriving at a certain time.  The fact that United fails to even acknowledge that their customer's time is valuable is what really angers me.

Not true. I was bumped off Delta for $250. It was fine and I was able to get a flight 4 hours later. I figured 4 hours was worth my $250 voucher. Cash is always better than a voucher though![/quote]
