美国网球明星Jessica Pegula发帖质问美联航:航班取消后又起飞 把乘客行李单独带走

11月2日晚,美国网球明星 Jessica Pegula 在 X 发帖,公开质问美国联合航空:她乘坐的航班先被宣布取消、乘客被叫去行李提取处,航班随后又被恢复并起飞,却把乘客留在了地面、把他们的托运行李单独带走。帖子到11月3日上午浏览量已超过8万次,美联航在帖子下公开道歉并请她私信提供确认编号协助处理。
Pegula 在原帖中写道:「请解释一下,你们取消了我们的航班、叫我们去行李提取处,然后又取消了取消、带着我们的行李起飞,这到底是怎么回事。我们还在倾盆大雨中在飞机上坐了两个多小时,其他人都回到了登机口。行李服务部门完全不知道发生了什么,只是一直说会把我们的行李取下来。与此同时,航班起飞了。这是我见过最疯狂的事。」
美联航在回复中写道:「我们理解出行并不总是按计划进行,很抱歉让你感到沮丧,Jessie。请私信发给我们你的确认编号,以便我们协助。」截至发稿,Pegula 与美联航都没有公布涉事航班的航班号和出发机场,她是否已经取回行李也未见公开说明。
Pegula 现年32岁、世界排名第四。按赛程,她接下来要参加11月8日至15日在加州 Indian Wells Tennis Garden 举行的 WTA 总决赛,这趟行程正是为参赛赶路途中出的岔子。据 Simple Flying 介绍,美国国内航班的托运行李在经过安检后,可以在旅客本人不在飞机的情况下运输,这与国际航班要求旅客与行李同行的规则不同,这也是这班飞机能在乘客被叫去行李提取处后仍带着行李起飞的制度背景。
Tennis Star Jessica Pegula Calls Out United on X: Canceled Flight Took Off With Passengers' Bags
On the night of November 2, American tennis star Jessica Pegula posted on X calling out United Airlines: the flight she was on was first announced as canceled and passengers were sent to baggage claim, then the flight was reinstated and took off, leaving the passengers on the ground while carrying their checked bags away. By the morning of November 3 the post had been viewed more than 80,000 times, and United apologized publicly under the post and asked her to send her confirmation number by direct message for assistance.
Pegula wrote in the original post: "@united explain to me how you cancelled our flight, you tell us to go to baggage claim and then uncancel the flight and take off with our bags. We also sat on the plane for 2+ hours in a torrential downpour when everyone else went back to the gate. Then baggage services had 0 clue what was happening and kept saying they would pull our bags. Meanwhile the flight took off. Craziest thing I've ever seen."
United replied: "We understand that travel doesn't always go as planned, and we're sorry for the frustration, Jessie. Please DM us your confirmation number so we can assist." As of publication, neither Pegula nor United had disclosed the flight number or departure airport, and there was no public word on whether she had recovered her bags.
Pegula, 32, is ranked No. 4 in the world. Her next event is the WTA Finals, scheduled for November 8 to 15 at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden in California, and the mishap happened while she was traveling to compete. According to Simple Flying, checked bags on U.S. domestic flights may be carried without their owner on board once they have passed screening, unlike the passenger-bag matching rule on international flights, which is the regulatory background that allowed the flight to depart with the bags after passengers had been sent to baggage claim.
