Thatcher A. Stone, an aviation lawyer, was awarded $3,110 by a Manhattan judge for his expenses and inconvenience after he and his 13-year-old daughter were kept off a Continental Airlines flight at Newark Airport on Christmas Day 2004.
Stone said Tuesday that he and his daughter had planned a ski holiday in Telluride, Colo., during the week between Christmas and New Year's Day. When they arrived at the boarding gate, the Continental agent told him they didn't have seats, according to Stone.
