And you believed it? After all of the crap that UA has pulled? I don't believe anything being announced to the public by anyone. It's far easier to go through life expecting less and planning with that in mind. You will be better prepared for anything.

My point is that these guys were acting like prima donnas. Those of us who have been flying for the last few weeks already knew they weren't blocking middle seats, it was no big surprise. I guess I should've posted here about the big betrayal and let everyone know! The problem is that these bozos felt entitled to empty middles (which, of course, makes no difference as far as virus transmission is concerned) and that other's needs to fly were less important than theirs.
