Author, columnist and radio host Mark Steyn was on a plane yesterday, and had a little problem:

Is the company’s IT department loaded with climate change alarmists or something?

.@Ohmaar1 @WayneUtley @united Ah, but then why did they let me on the plane?

.@JoeSta11ings @Ohmaar1 @WayneUtley @united Yeah, 3,300 bucks for no meal, a lousy bag of chips, a filthy seat and a censored Internet

@MarkSteynOnline You sure you didn't get on the wrong plane by mistake? United… Arab Emirates Airlines?

.@4TheJerseyKid No. Emirates has meal service.

Heh.
@MarkSteynOnline I'm guessing there are certain web sites that safe space bed-wetters complain about when seeing other passengers view them.

Steyn waited for a response. And waited:
.@united At 35,000 feet all I can hear are United Customer Service Crickets chirping @AmericanAir

If he’s not satisfied, Steyn was offered an option for future flights:
