Fly The Unfriendly Or Smelly Skies


Turbulence has once again hit United Airline’s motto Fly the Friendly Skies
Seems like only yesterday a Chinese doctor was dragged off overbooked flight by police
So a replacement crew could be ahead flown
Then on a flight from London to the U.S. a giant rabbit was DOA
Now a Nigerian mother found her business class seat occupied by a white exuding rude
Refused to move so this woman was moved to that man’s seat
Whose seatmate started to complain of having to sit next to someone he claimed stunk
Not sure whether UA is with odor meters equipped
Or whether the stews became mine canaries to stiff
But soon she and her children were out of the plane and on the ground
UA has been hit with a discrimination suit
Was it the woman’s  odor after three long flights caused by stress even in business class
Or a man’s nose picking up the  racism scent?
Having to sit next to a black in a business class seat
What next in addition to drug sniffing canines
UA needs odor sniffing canines to litigation block?
