And who do they screw – a &lt;B&gt;US Soldier&lt;/B&gt; of all people.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;John Weisner, a &lt;B&gt;US Soldier&lt;/B&gt;, was preparing to fly out of Washington Dulles Airport and report for duty overseas with his dog Jeddah on United Airlines when the nightmare began.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;United told Mr. Weisner the new sturdy crate he just bought wasn’t good enough and that he would have to buy one of theirs.  As it turns out the United Airlines crate wasn’t sturdy after all, and while Jeddah was heading to the plane something crashed into the crate, bowing it inward and allowing Jeddah to escape.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Mr. &amp;amp; Mrs. Weisner live in N.C. and have had to stay in the area to find their beloved dog and now Mr. Weisner has had to report for duty on 7/28/08 and will depart Dulles, ending his active 24/7 involvement in the search for Jeddah.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;And how does United Airlines repay one of our US Soldiers after losing his dog  --  by refusing to pay for any of the Weisner’s expenses.  So now Mrs. Weisner may be forced to leave the area and head back to N.C. without Jeddah (their only “child”) because of the ever increasing expenses.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;This isn’t right what United Airlines is doing to this family, not right at all, but how do you fight back against an airlines that doesn’t even care about our soldiers?&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;So… can anything be done about this injustice????  It makes me mad as hell that United can screw over this family, a US Soldier and nothing can be done about it…  Anyone have any ideas… ?????</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6412900754136064810/7658949313754258112/comments/default/1109169200476219345'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6412900754136064810/7658949313754258112/comments/default/1109169200476219345'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.restonian.org/2008/07/worse-than-that-time-united-sent-your.html?showComment=1217322660000#c1109169200476219345' title=''/><author><name>michaelinva02@gmail.com</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.restonian.org/2008/07/worse-than-that-time-united-sent-your.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6412900754136064810.post-7658949313754258112' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6412900754136064810/posts/default/7658949313754258112' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-516673359'/></entry></feed>
