Capt. Flanagan's unwavering customer service and attention to the flyer is awe-inspiring and rare. Just wish we had more UA employees like Denny that appreciate the customer!
It is so very true. When I pass the video along to others, I tell them that he did this for every flight--the gate announcements, greeting at the door, etc.--not just for his retirement flight. That is even more impressive to know it was done for 30 years.
