It's a universal consensus that flight delays are no fun; however, I don't understand how name calling and unfounded finger-pointing assumptions resolves the issue. In turn, emotion-driven breakdowns over a flight delay(s) says more about (i.e. it's all about me) the complainer than the airline.

The rudimentary airline operational discrepancies with American Airlines originated with out of touch corporate headquarters' expansion. People who know nothing about the daily in-person operations of a business, have no concept of daily operational realities. An advanced college management degree at the headquarters level, or private equity owner's level, is completely out of touch with daily business operations. If you take care of the nickels & dimes the dollars with take care of themselves.

I find it interesting that Texas, a so called "red state", is experiencing a seemingly targeted influx of illegal immigration of "unvaccinated" immigrants; literally and figuratively being ignored by the federal government. As I understand America's republic form of governance, the "government's" primary duty is to protect the borders to insure all citizens are allowed to safely live their lives. Given the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic how does this current southern border illegal immigration fiasco reconcile with that mandate? Are Texas citizens not worthy of all-inclusive federal government protection?

Ostensibly, the "Chicago woman" arrived at the airport early enough to have her baggage checked-in and loaded on the aircraft. Did she then sit too long in the bar, realize she missed her flight and then come up with this alcohol-induced reaction? Regardless, does anyone believe her son's school attendance could/would cause this type of behavior in anyone? I just hope her son forgets this parental example of uncivil human behavior.

This raving egomaniac (i.e., "Sir Richard Branson") has ignored so many "red light", "off course" warning lights in his life, why should anyone care about this one?

It's understandable that musicians need to travel with their instruments from time to time; however, the FAA regulation does have a "space available" condition. Just because a musician allegedly boarded early does not speak to the "booked" capacity of the flight, or how many other bags the musician placed in the overhead compartment. Bottom line, this situation tells me more about the character of the musician than a critique of the flight attendant and/or airline; e.g. did the musician consider purchasing a seat for the violin?
