Someone “challenged me” to post the reverse airport experience.
Here it is - departing from Beijing international airport.
23 minutes from curbside to the gate
Flight is not for another 2 hours but I wanted to beat Beijing downtown traffic.
My experience in China, Shenzhen, Bao’An Intl Airport.
20 min from curbside to gate.
30 min to my seat.
Y’all have a lotta catching up to do in infrastructure and service.
I fly domestically rarely, no more than 4 times a year. I use a small 4 wheeler and back pack. I used to carry the 4 wheeler on board, but now check it because my 80 year-old arthritic shoulders and back cannot lift the luggage into the bin.
Someone who needs more stuff than can fit in a carryon bag, or doesn't want to haul a bag around and lift it into the overhead, or deal with maybe having to gate check it on a packed flight. Not everyone is exactly like you, dingus.
Every bag is scanned multiple times before it gets loaded onto the plane. Their system knows that your bag was never scanned after being tagged so it must have been left behind.
Who checks a bag on a domestic flight...?
Not making excuses for @united who are obviously incompetent, but checking a bag is like bringing ants with you to the picnic and then complaining about how many ants there are.
Oh I’m just entertaining myself by pointing out that he is factually incorrect in his statement and seeing how deep he’ll dig in.
Just confirmed, United’s policy is 45 minutes prior to departure, so you were almost a half hour before the cutoff.
Most airlines are 45 minutes before departure. He checked his bag in over an hour prior to scheduled departure.
So, again, he was not taking a risk here. This is airline error.
Not sure how you’re struggling so hard to understand this.
