A comedian is angry after he was recently downgraded on an American Airlines flight from Hawaii to the mainland. While his frustration is justified, does he actually understand what happened?
Long story short, a few minutes before boarding in Honolulu, Breuer and his wife were paged at the gate, and were informed that the flight was overbooked in first class, and they’d need to be downgraded. As it turns out, two pilots in uniform ended up in their seats, as the husband and wife were downgraded to seats in row 18. The gate agent offered them $500 each in compensation, but he found that to be insulting when they spent “thousands” on their first class tickets, and turned it down.
Now, the reason you’d want to watch this long video is to realize just how furious Breuer is about what happened:
