All the massive corruption out there, and Jeffy gets S-canned for running 1 flight a week to appease the head of the Port Authority. I think it is over punishment, except Jeffy really was the poster child for scumbag lawyer wiki. I am amazed at the press this is getting. And happy that Jeffy has to live with it.
Somehow, Hilary does 1000 times worse, and is still a front runner for president.

If United had been performing in line with Delta and American, FLIBs would still be CEO and the BoD would be providing cover for him.

He wasn't canned for the Port Authority scandal; he was canned due to United's underperformance while he was CEO. The Port Authority scandal merely gave the BoD legal cover to fire him.

I don't think United will pay for his actions. I think in this era of personal responsibility and accountability that if one engaged in any sort of illegal or unethical practices that that individual is personally culpable and responsible. If any legal actions are filed, expect there to be named plaintiffs.
Further, if he engaged in any sort of unprofessional/unethical, or unsanctioned conduct, expect the company will not back him and further expect there to be some sort of "detrimental conduct" clause to be in his contract.
I would like to read his contract so that I would better understand the mandatory triggers of his golden parachute, as well as the limitations of it (if any).
5 million dollar golden parachute is a big deal. There's gotta be some provisions in it to limit or prevent its deployment.
