3% unemployment made people brave.

Change is coming...

Frontier has a published policy stating you must check in 60 minutes prior to departure.

If this is true, then I have no problem with not letting him check in. The problem (obviously) comes from the way it was handled by the two chicks at the desk. they are in customer service and deserved to be fired for that idiocy.

But if there is a stated policy that you have to check in no fewer than 60 minutes before the flight, and he didn't make that, then I don't have an issue with him not being allowed to. (And yes I realize the article says they were going to let him check in until he said what he said about the airline)

as soon as I saw that video, I started laughing, remembering this old SNL video – back when SNL was still funny...

And they got fired.


They didn't get fired. They work for a third party contractor (like ABM) and were removed from working on the Frontier account.

He clearly threw a fit before this video started. Even the white guy 30 feet away called him out.



It still doesn't excuse acting unprofessional.

From my understanding it wasn't the "shitty airline" comment but rather he didn't want to pay Frontier's $25 "Agent Assist" fee.

Both sides are to blame here. The ghetto queens deserve their shitcanning for mocking him. If this involved Delta, they would've professionally told him to frick off. The guy is a little prick for expecting to be checked in while the flight is likely boarding.

I was going off of this that someone posted:
quote:

"But according to the customer, identified by the New York Post as a 45-year-old married father of three, the gate agents had originally told him they'd check him into his flight despite his having missed the 60-minute cut-off by about 10 minutes - until, that is, they heard him mutter, “I’m never flying this sh—y airline again.”

“When I said that, the lady who I was talking to took a step back and gasped, and was like, ‘How dare you curse at me? I’m not checking you in. I don’t have to check you in.’
And my reaction was, ‘You will check me in.’ I think those were the words that I used,” he said."

Unfortunately, instead of her keeping her composure and remaining professional to the rude customer, she went all ghetto on him and lost her job. That’s the problem with todays workers, too much Jerry Springer in them.

It may take 20 minutes to board, and you probably want passengers to check in at least 10 minutes before you start boarding. Now if you add luggage, you can easily see that at 60 minutes. This dude wasn't at the gate, he was at the front desk.


So what happens if the whole plane load of travelers shows up simultaneously at the front desk 60 minutes before departure? And Mr. Fusso is last in line and his turn at the front desk coincides with the time he showed up in this case? Can they board him?

And if so, what's the difference?

They were still willing to board him past the scheduled time but I don't know many people who don't have a mobile boarding pass in advance. This guy just sounds like an idiot.

So the customer

Showed up late and clearly outside of the stated policy he agreed to when he purchased the ticket and wanted special snowflake treatment

Cussed about the airline in which he was the one actually at fault

The airline employees

Acted like huge pricks


Everyone here is a loser

Correct. The only person who acted somewhat normally was the old white guy who told him this would be his last flight with Fronteir.

However, we missed a lot of context/emotions prior to recording, and we all know this guy was not acting calm, normal, etc.
