I saw this earlier. Didn't know he was on a Buddy Pass (friends 'n' family freebie). While that still doesn't excuse their overbooking--there's usually a limit to how many can be on a particular flight and they're almost always bumped for paying customers and full employees--I don't see how the "ordeal" is worth two million. The airline will probably settle just to avoid having its internal booking practices scrutinized.

Yeah, a Bathroom Buddy Pass.
Does anyone remember flying ATA? It was like this, only they threw snacks at you. Cheap airfare, though.

Flying Аэрофлот was like flying in a bathroom no matter what seat you were in. And hell, I never got $2M. Suck up and deal, bozo.

Why couldn't he just sit on the jumpseat that wasn't being used?

It's for employees only. No shit. The cunt should get shitcanned, at the very least, and his buddies should get to gangrape her.

Gang rape seems a little strong. How about just locking her in a malfunctioning airplane bathroom for the duration of a cross-country flight, including a three-hour wait on the tarmac, with nothing but a Dean Koontz novel, a bag of honey roasted peanuts, and half a can of seltzer?

I would take the bathroom seat with my laptop... wait for some turbulence, then "bang! Boom! OW!! I'm suing!!" ... although i would make sure to really for real hit my head on the wall, maybe break some glass and draw blood. haha then come crawling out and say "they captain made me do it... ow..."
