    Remember when the assholes at United overbooked a flight and sent someone to knock a doctor’s teeth out and carry him off a plane? The doctor refused since he was on his way to oversee the opening of a clinic he founded for veterans.

    He and his wife started the clinic as a way to thank American servicemen and women, because he was plucked out of ocean waters by the U.S. Navy as he fled communism in his home country of Vietnam about 44 years ago, he said.

    Yeah. This will make up for it. Fuck United Airlines.

    United Airlines: please forget all the bag things we’ve ever done; here’s free Internet.

    So as a United flier(haven’t flown for two months, though), I know that they provide the following free:

    • a selection of locally hosted movies and TV shows
    • RCS, iMessage
    • Internet messaging services like meta messenger and snapchat(I can’t speak on more niche messengers like Jami or any forms of XMPP

    You have to pay extra(or sign in with t-mobile) to get in flight internet access.

    I hope that this means that you’ll get unrestricted internet access for free, instead of only a few apps and services.
