You would think that airlines would be taking these matters somewhat more seriously, especially after the embarrassment that United suffered after Dave's song United Breaks Guitars captured over five million YouTube views. But Dave is adamant that airlines still have a long way to go in understanding that their market is made up by a collection of individuals. Says Dave, "I'm not sure the airlines are learning anything". Meanwhile, the second United Breaks Guitars song has been uploaded onto YouTube. Will Dave see through his promise to issue a third song? "I said I would do three and I'm going to do three," he told me.
Dave Carroll has a good piece of advice if you happen to checking in a delicate item. Never ask for a 'Fragile' sticker. "It's a target," he says. "I know of baggage handlers who look for items with 'Fragile' stickers so they can break them."
You have been warned....
