~Wall Street: Trying to get a live person was an issue. When I did get someone they were out of the country and did not have the authority to help me. I travel ** - ** times a year on business. United was my airline of choice. However they have gone downhill over the last * years. They treat passengers like cattle. The personnel are robotic. I guess I'll be using Delta or American more often.
