I'll bet UA is behind all of the socks lost in the dryer too.

You'd think that with him being Canadian and forced to use `Air Canada', he'd be used to being treated like dog-sh*t. Or has UA achieved a level of douche-baggery that Air Canada could only dream of.

I've never flown Air Canada, but I have flown cattle class on Ryan Air, and I will say that Ryan Air is head and shoulders above UA in almost all areas.

Why does he keep flying with them if they keep losing his sh*t?

Yeah! How dare he expect good customer service from an airline!

This guy obviously flies enough to know that bags getting delayed is not the craziest thing to expect while flying. Especially if you show up at the airport just in time for your flight. You can run to your gate. Bags can't.

FTFA: It was the only direct flight he could get.

There is a $25 fee to upgrade from "Go fark yourself with a sharp stick" customer service to "Go fark yourself, but we'll give you lube" customer service. I guess he went for the former...

United Baggage Handler #1: Yo- Earl! Earl! Look at the name on this luggage! It's that United Hates Guitars guy! I'm gonna open it up and take a shiat in it.
United Baggage Handler #2: Don't do that, Frank- everybody knows you had corn for lunch!
UBH#1: Damn. Good thing you remembered. OK then, what should we do with it.
UBH#2: See that dumpster over there, the one marked "explosive contraband and fragile musical instruments?" It's heading over to the shredder in about 20min. Chuck it in there.
UBH#1: Alllllrighty then. 86'd One set of luggage.

Why would anyone be foolish enough to check luggage in the first place?

"lost" his bags, riiiiight. That will teach him to mess around with United

No kidding. It sounds like he was going on a speaking engagement. That's what, 2-3 days, tops? If you aren't planning on being somewhere for more than 4 days, you don't need to check anything.

Is this more about UA or about the atrocious Denver baggage system which was built on an Indian burial ground... or so I've heard.

SpinStopper: Why?

It's his fault his guitar was broken yet he whined like a biatch to the internet to get the company to pay for it. He's like those people who return gallons of milk to Home Depot and make such a scene that the managers pay them $4 just to get them to go away.

Son, there are only a few certainties in life but one of them is NEVER bet against an American or American company in a douchebag contest.

The are only a few things this once-proud nation still leads the world in; but advanced douchebaggery and general prickishness are WAY up top that list.

Ah...he made the second worst list to be on. The "made waves for the company so hose him over list".

Bet they lost his stuff on purpose. Was it covered in baggage tosser urine?

I've always checked my bags and haven't lost one yet. {knocking on wood}

Strangely enough, the first time an airline lost one of my bags was literally a week after commenting on Fark how I've never had my bags lost.

You'd return it too if your "milk" turned out to be "drywall paste"

Gotta love Fark Independents.

Not only should we allow companies to ream us daily, we shouldn't even COMPLAIN.

Because that would be disrespectful and whiny.
