First I checked for the best section: Best Travel? No ...Best Anything Goes? No. ...Best News? There is no section.

Then more similar situations started to make the news; passengers sharing their experience.
Overbooking in the air travel industry seems to be de rigueur, and it leads to disasters because they treat humans like animals.
Just google it and you'll see.
Anyway, when I saw this young couple with their baby...it devastated me; this is wrong, this is totally wrong from the airline industry.
And it happens with all of them, all the companies. ...Overbooking so they can maximize profits, and customer service is secondary. Sick!
What is the best we can do, us as regular passengers, humans travelling by planes?
...Taking videos, denouncing the malpractices, the human disrespect, the indignity, sharing what we are witnessing.
It's making more and more the news nowadays, and it comes to light...even with the CEO of United Airlines testifying before US Congress.
In Canada we have similar situations where passengers are maltreated. It's all over...
