I love how the make note that the airline gave everyone a $5 drink coupon.
My how times have changed...I was on a Western Airlines 727 back in the 80's that blew a tire on landing at DFW. It was like "sh*t happens"...if I would have known you could get freebies, I would have asked Firestone for something after I blew a tire on my car heading home after landing safely at MCI.Well, considering that it didn't even require an evac, as bizman said, they got delivered to their destination. However, a friend of mine who lives in Houston told me that when they were interviewing passengers on local news, several made disparaging comments about the drink coupon. No doubt they felt they should get free flights with auto F/C upgrades for life.![]()
