Remember, the passenger says she'd flown a few times with her disabled daughter after she turned two. This would not be the first time United's inability to deliver consistent service or to follow a single standard became a customer service issue.
Once again, UA proves to the world that they haven't a clue what service means.
Sane meaning they agree with you?
I take all of these stories with a grain of salt; who knows what really happened? Do you think the mom told the story exactly as it happened? Doubtful. I'm sure this is a selective retelling with pertinent facts omitted.
