Has anyone actually missed a flight when sent back from the gate to SSSS? I'm curious to know what you would be offered.
She apologized, acknowledged what I said and told me to get to the checkpoint and back. While she acknowleded what I said, she didn't respond about the IDB part, but if the flight did leave without me, I would expect nothing less.
Thankfully I made it, but what a bloody pain. I was on a high fare for that leg of the journey, which would have made an IDB worthwhile
The trip was planned with little notice and the cheapest way to do it was between two carriers to get a price break at ORD. This UA segment was the most expensive leg of the entire journey. I don't know if that played a role or not in the flight being held.
