Jimmy Kimmel Blasts United Airlines in Brutally Honest Ad
TV

The late-night host mocks the airline with a new safety video to reflect its treatment of a passenger who was forcibly removed from United Express Flight 3411.

AceShowbiz - Jimmy Kimmel blasts United Airlines in a new video in the wake of a controversial passenger video which went viral on Monday, April 10. The viral video saw a man being forcibly dragged off an overbooked flight by some law enforcement officers.

The incident reportedly happened on Flight 3411 on Sunday. Passengers captured footage of law enforcement officers dragging a bloodied man off the flight. The airline overbooked the flight and asked for volunteers to accept compensation and accommodations, but when no one volunteered, they chose four people to remove at random.

During "Jimmy Kimmel Live!", the host shows a fake commercial featuring the footage of the customer being pulled off the plane and no shortage of threats.

"We're United Airlines. You do what we say, when we say, and there won't be a problem, capiche? If we say you fly, you fly. If not, tough s**t," the video spoof begins, "Give us a problem and we'll drag your a** off the plane, and if you resist, we'll beat you so badly you'll be using your own face as a flotation device."

Jimmy also criticizes United Airlines CEO, Oscar Munoz, for his response to the situation. Oscar posted on Twitter, "This is an upsetting event to all of us here at United. I apologize for having to re-accommodate these customers."

The late-night host says, "It's like when we re-accommodated El Chapo out of Mexico. That is such sanitized, say nothing, take no responsibility, corporate B.S. speak. I don't know how the guy who sent that tweet didn't vomit when he typed it up."
