(The Washington Post)Calls to boycott United Airlines are growing as outrage over the company's violent “re-accommodation” of an elderly doctor enters its second day. Here are the major airports where United accounts for more than 10 percent of total passenger traffic. If I want to fly nonstop between Dulles and San Francisco (two United hubs), for instance, my options this weekend include a United flight for $632, and a Virgin America flight that costs $115 more. But in all likelihood I'll opt for the cheaper United flight, pocket the extra hundred bucks and hope for the best. For an airline boycott to work, in other words, customers would have to be really mad — mad enough to actually make a financial sacrifice.
