I’ve heard this story over and over and only seen one side.
American Airlines cited 'fraudulent behavior,' saying that Rothstein would approach fellow passengers at the gate and offer them a free upgrade to his companion seat (something he bought as a $150,000 add-on). He was also accused of purposefully keeping his companion seat empty and using it as a place to put his luggage while booking under a fake name.
This is the first I’ve seen the opposing point. Wow. How jewy…. And he’s got nobody to blame but himself.
Which explains my title.
