    When you have a guitar you like, that you've had for years, done many gigs with, wrote songs with, entertained hundreds of people with and has been part of your life, and as the Everly Brothers & Jimmy Buffett song says holds "All the stories it can tell"...NOTHING replaces it! I will NEVER fly with United EVER!

My 70 year old mother just visited the UK and on the return to the USA (via DC), United helped her loads. Perhaps it is their job but they did go out of the way to make sure she was ok. She has very bad hips and they provided a chair etc, transported her through Heathrow, DC and onward to Indy! They have up'd their game! Thanks and thank you UAL for looking after my mother!

He tried to follow the process they gave him for filing a claim, and fought them about it for NINE MONTHS. They denied him every time. What other options did he have, and why does the song idea bother you? I think it's great that we live in a time where a single person can creatively make issues public. The songs are catchy and funny too. Why all the hate?

Evidently this ended up costing United $180 million dollars when their stock took a nosedive!! Having flown a few times with United, and owning a couple of $5000+ guitars, after hearing this I wouldn't fly across the street with them!!

Well United paid dearly. Loads of returned tickets, frequent flyer left for other airlines. Karma delivered. ;-D
