    It's disgusting. In this day and age. When will people learn to record with their phone horizontally or in landscape if you prefer.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    Incredible, that heavy handed Agent is a thug and a scumbag.
    United overbooked and then needed 4 seats for their own staff.

    This lad said he was a doctor who needed to get to patients, while that may or may not be true, they had no right to strong arm him off the plane. He somehow got back on later, though it's not clear if he was left on or ran back on.

    Some of the other passengers were quite vocal about it, obviously you can't do anything else or you'll be on a no fly list for life!

    Yeah, not accepting that the guy was thrown off for that. They don't let you board in the first place if they move someone off the flight because it's overbooked. The police aren't called in for no reason either.

    There's more to this than that 52 second video.

    If he was taken off how could he have been left on? Was it Schrödinger Airways?

    Sorry but I find it hard to believe that the police would get involved in a simple dispute over over-booking - or that you'd even be let on to the plane in the first place.

    There's more to this than meets the eye.

    Please reopen a new thread with, at the very least, a comment rather than just a link dumped with no details at all. Thanks
