    More bad press for United. They say things happen in 'threes' so maybe this pattern will subside... hopefully.

    I feel for the cellist for sure.

      I say again, as I have said before, I will NEVER fly with my instrument. Period. The airlines don't give a tinker's damn about your instrument, so it is simply a matter of time before yours will get "the treatment".
