        But realistically, United vouchers are next to worthless with all the restrictions and how hard they are to use.

        Side note: I haven't found a story that clarifies if they offered vouchers or cash beforehand, do you happen to know?

        He's only sorry because their stocks took a hit. There's no reason for @united to have waited this long to apologize.
