All the CEOs are garbage

That said I will continue to fly United

Damn 600k skyline miles. I only have 10k lol

He is especially bad and scummy.


They have devalued miles so much they’re useless.

Yeah I know. A lot of these businesses are doing that. Thankfully United's rewards program actually means something, but again to qualify for premier silver or the next stage I would have to go on 3 more qualifying trips by january 2025. Meh

I can sympathize with Carter's struggle

Your bosses aren't "heeding your advice"? Are you planning a hostile takeover of this mystery corporation you work for?

 

[John Price]

Is NCL's CEO an upstanding and ethical individual.

Reading an article right now on @GIADF Delta CEO praising new times where there is less regulation. Yeah okay. Because now businesses can do whatever they want to max out profit. Real fun.

That's the problem with businesses getting involved in politics, their desire to maximize their profits come at the expense of society.

But externalized costs requires more than two brain cells to understand, so people don't give a shit about them.

not that struggle !

Not to defend these travel corporations because a lot of what they are doing IS scummy and very customer unfriendly, but many of them took on mountains of debt during COVID and this is the only way they know how to try & climb out of it.

I plea the 5th. Read my post above. Lots of cuts & service reductions related to the mountains of debt taken on from COVID.

Odd how an asian man was forced out of his seat and beat up and people were all upset and that didn't change my positive perception of United at all

Well considering your continued defense of Shane Gillis this does not surprise me in the least.

Because the overbooking incident was an isolated incident and United fixed their policies shortly thereafter

It's time for the citizens to pool our money together and start buying politicians

Airlines yes. Cruise lines no because they are registered in foreign countries. We got ZERO bailout $$$ during COVID thus the reason for the many cutbacks pretty much all cruise lines are doing right now. People are bitching like crazy but they are still selling like hot fire.

I don't care about cruise lines because it's the worst form of vacation.

Ain't no way I'm driving hours or taking a flight to then sit on a boat for days eating crappy food for days.

I also have no problem with Tony Hinchcliffe after he attacked an Asian comic verbally lol

people take things too serious

United fixed their policies because people took that "isolated incident" seriously.

Don't be a shortsighted fool, businesses aren't going to the do the right thing until it affects their profits.

https://www.cnn.com/2019/04/09/us/united-airlines-david-dao/index.html

An initial letter sent to United employees appeared to blame Dao, referring to him as “disruptive and belligerent,” and praised employees for following “established protocols.” But United came under fire for how it responded as the footage went viral.

United CEO Oscar Munoz later apologized, calling the encounter “truly horrific.”

Less than a month afterward, United reached a settlement with Dao without disclosing the terms.

If you're going to f*** over some paying customers, why let them board just to take them back off the plane, that makes no sense
