- Class action suits accuse Delta and United of charging premiums for seats advertised as window seats that lack actual windows.
- The lawsuits were filed in federal courts in New York and San Francisco, involving more than one million affected seats.
- These windowless seats result from airplane design factors like air conditioning ducts placed beside the seats.
- Plaintiffs seek refunds and punitive damages for misleading passengers about the true nature of the seats sold.
We're seeking to hold United and Delta accountable for charging customers premiums for products that they didn’t deliver, and misrepresenting the nature of the products that they did deliver.— Carter Greenbaum, an attorney whose law firm filed the suits.
