Open Post: Hosted By The Abandoned San Francisco Airport Dog Finding His “Furever” Home With A United Airlines Pilot
United Airlines ranks nowhere near the top of any of “The Best Airlines in America” lists (just ask Mayim Bialik), unless you’re a sweet puppy whose first owner decided to inexplicably yeet you from their luggage at San Francisco International Airport. Polaris, a 6-month-old German Shepard, was left at the airport this summer after his human decided to continue their travels without him. Luckily, United Airlines assisted the SPCA in Polaris’ care from abandonment up until he was finally adopted by one of United’s pilots, just in time to have a home for the holidays.
United Settled With The Doctor Who Got Dragged Off Their Plane
It’s been three weeks since an “oversold flight” led to Dr. David Dao getting pulled out of his seat on a United plane in Chicago and dragged down the aisle like his name was Dionne Warwick and that officer’s name was Aretha Franklin. Dr. Dao’s attorney, Thomas Demetrio, said that he suffered a concussion, a broken nose and lost some teefs. Dr. Dao also needed reconstructive surgery to get his nose back to working right. As soon as I heard that, I pictured every Keurig machine in United’s office getting replaced with a jar of Sanka and a used electric kettle. Because they gotta cut costs to pay up to make that stage 10 PR disaster go away.
Thomas was on Today earlier this week and said that they were going to sue and as he said that, I pictured him dancing on the inside while singing I’m So Paid. That lawsuit will never be filed, though, because CNN says that a settlement has been reached.
