I'm sure if I contact UA, they'll just throw some free miles(5000 or 10,000?) into my account, plus a canned response. Oh well, it's not like I got beat up by the flight attendant and had my teeth knocked out... so I guess ranting here is the best therapy to help me forget the incident.
Going to a bar with my co-workers later today, so I'll get some extra rum(double, triple?) in my frozen pina coladas.
The FA probably assumed that you would me more likely to complain if you had paid for the seat.
