Moral to the story is do what you are told I guess. His lawyer will have a field day though.

...and before long, I'd have first-class United seats to every Clemson away game for the next 5 years.

You are thinking too small

Think bigger. Like suing United for every penny they are worth. Hello my new Trinity Yacht.

Not big enough. Chicago PD is responsible for dragging him off the plane...and he's a minority. And a doctor who said he had patients to see at his destination. And said before they dragged him into a concussion that he was phoning his attorney. And then had passengers screaming in his defense. And then somehow managed to get back on the plane disoriented and obviously concussed.
This dude is about to CRUCIFY the Chicago PD AND United Airlines.

What about his patients? Could they sue? And what about the other passengers? This could be the biggest lawsuit ever.

Already being speculated by mainstream media. If he's a smart man, and his actions say he is, he'll have attorneys and anyone else looking to cash in.
Like I said, would have been cheaper for United to send another plane...hell maybe cheaper to build a new one.
Keep in mind, they were removing paying passengers with secured seats so that EMPLOYEES could board.

Would have been cheaper for them to send another plane for the four employees.
Hope he takes them for all they're worth.

Lawyers will take this without a penny from him

They will make 10% off the settlement, which will probably be tens of millions, if not more.

Very true, didn't think of that.

He'll have his pick of the best lawyer team in the business. They'll all be clamoring for his business.
I'm guessing they'll settle out of court to keep things quite as possible.

Maybe more? 10% of $100,000,000+ is pretty hefty though.

United handled this poorly and continues to handle it poorly

I fly a ton and have never seen this. I have seen a Delta offer as much as $1200 to passengers to take another flight. Apparently United waited until AFTER the plane was boarded (first mistake) and then maxed their offer out at $800. When they didn't have enough takers they forced them off.

Are saying that someone else is more important than him to fly. Who is that, an airline employee? Someone with more points? Airlines have been saying we are second class citizens for years, just more proof.

The overbook force out was so that United Employees for another flight could dead head. It literally can't get any worse for them unless the pilot was the one beating the passenger.
