The plane absolutely could have left, entirely full of ticketed passengers. United held the plane to force this scenario -- since they wanted to replace ticketed paid passengers with their own staff to fly for free.
- _fizz_buzz_ 10y agoA pilot will not leave if they have a passenger on board who refuses to follow instructions by the crew. If you feel like you are treated unjustly (which might very well be the case here), take the fight off the plane.
- tsunamifury 10y agoReally? Would a plane not leave if the crew requested you remove your clothes and fly naked? Would it not leave if they forced you to fight another passenger? There was no safety issue, and the crew only has power over you in the event of an issue of safety. There was no such issue.
- valuearb 10y agoTheir "staff" was a flight crew that needed to get to Louisville or another plane full of 200 passengers would be stuck on the tarmac unable to fly.
- Oletros 10y agoAh, and UA didn't knew it before the people boarded? So, not only they are morons, but they are totally incompetents. I have not seen such ridiculous defence of something indefendible like you're doing on this thread.
