If someone can prove this actually happened and United (or any airline really) didn't just pocket that money as profit, I will eat my hat and post the video for all to see.
- AnimalMuppet 10y agoNot proof, exactly, but... I read somewhere that total airline profits for domestic carriers from 1960 to 2010[1] were $0. The history of airlines is just bankruptcy, restructuring, reworking union contracts, belt-tightening, and rinse and repeat. [1] This is from memory. Actual years may vary.
