On a flight from Kentucky to CLT (so, I'm assuming either one of the rj airlines or the US Airways side of the family--the article does not identify the originating airport), a black woman with Platinum status was sent to the back of the airplane though she had purchased F/C upgrades for herself and her white traveling companion. The white companion who was just along for the ride was given a F/C seat. Regardless of who is right, I hope the airline does a Delta and makes restitution to the customer immediately. There's just no way out of this kind of mess--especially since they seated the white traveling companion in F/C.
