So, there's been some buzz about United Airlines supposedly letting people change their flights for free if they didn't want to land at the newly named President Donald J. Trump International Airport, formerly Palm Beach International (PBI). But United's saying that's not true. The rumor was that there was an internal memo giving reservation agents the go-ahead to offer alternatives, but United's denied this.
Honestly, it's kind of wild to think about an airline offering free changes just because of an airport's name. I mean, airports change names all the time, right? But I guess this one's a bit more controversial. Still, United's pretty firm that they're not allowing free changes based on this.
What do you guys think about this whole situation? Would an airport name change sway your decision on where to fly? And how often do airlines really make exceptions like this? I'm curious if anyone's ever experienced something similar where they got to change flights for free for a reason like this. Let me know!
