In the latest of developments in the story of United Airlines flight 3411 and the removal of an elderly Asian-American doctor, the airline will apparently be “compensating every passenger” on the flight for the cost of their ticket, according to CNBC.
The airline initially came out in the defense of the man’s removal and then yesterday pivoted to say that the incident was unacceptable and that it would be rectified.
The passenger, David Dao released a statement yesterday thanking everyone for their support. It also mentioned that Dao was still in the hospital and says that “everything” is injured.
