Around the 4th of July, Becca Foggia had a travel day that she described as “the worst attempted travel day of my life.” She took to TikTok to post a video about how her attempts to “get back to the East Coast,” specifically Chicago, on United Airlines, turned into an exercise in patience. The clip shows her in a car, presumably on her way away from the airport, and it captures the frustration of a day that turned into a total disaster.
Foggia claimed that her “flight was delayed 5 hours. I sat on the tarmac, also, not even in the airport. And after five hours, we were deplaned, and still, we couldn’t rebook flights. We just had to sit there and wait for an update. Finally got canceled, and I never checked my bag, but of course, my bag got gate checked, and I have no idea where it is. I don’t have any clothes.” According to her, United didn’t provide any support or compensation.
