I would have told him that at present day, I have spent $336K+ on UA (since 1997) and that I have been on 45 (or so) round trips on UA in the past 12 months. I would have added that I am currently at a 50 cents/mile yield and WILL make UGS for next year. I would tell the guy if it were me, I would have called the Federal Authorities and had him arrested for interferring with the flight crew. Then I would have said that I would be asking everyone else in the cabin their meal selection and you, Mr. Nitwit will get the last meal left.

iwebslinger, you were kinder than I would have been.
