Jean Mamakos, a 68-year-old woman from Long Island, is suing United Airlines for $5 million after she spent 3 days in jail following an arrest for attempting to change seats on her flight.
The charge for changing seats on on a plane? Get this: Trespassing
The story is baffling on several levels and garnered enough attention that it was featured on Inside Edition (watch the brief clip next).
United loves to switch flights which is annoying, but I never had a problem laying across 3 empty seats near the back of the plane !
I guess your memory is short!
I don’t fly United and would never after this.
What a crock of sheet!!
WHAT THE HECK. NO ONE IS WEIGHED BEFORE THEY ARE SEATED. IF SHE CAN OPEN THE EMERGENCY DOOR THAT’S ONLY REQUIREMENT. MOST PEOPLE DON’T EVEN LIKE TO SIT THERE
I have changed seats and the stewards did not care so long as the seat was empty! So what’s their problem? United Airlines almost always lost my luggage, they are terrible!
wow, simply friggin wow
Hang it in their as@
WHAT???????
Hope she wins
