As I read the article I came to suspect what he admitted at the end, that he was misusing the airline as part of a psychological dependency, as a way of coping with loss. Sad all around: AA did the normal sociopathic corporate crap, and he also was not supported by society in order to heal properly.
of the 3,009 flight segments Dad booked for himself from May 2005 to December 2008, he either canceled or was considered a “no-show” for 84% of those reservations. During the same time period, he booked 2,648 flight segments for travel companions, and 2,269 were either canceled or a no-show.
The guy booked 5659 flights in 3 years (that's basically 5 per day) and almost didn't show up to any of them.
I don't really care about anything else, I even stopped reading at that point. I'm on AAs side here, fuck that guy. Of course they're going to cancel you for misuse, that is clear and severe misuse by any standard.
