Eighteen percent said they were not sure.United Airlines has come under fire in the last few weeks for the forcible removal of a 69-year-old man from one of its planes. The incident happened on April 9 aboard a plane in Chicago heading to Louisville.The passenger, David Dao, was dragged off the plane by Chicago Aviation police officers after refusing to give up his seat on the plane. A fellow passenger recorded the incident and the video quickly went viral.Despite the backlash, though, the poll shows Americans still have a slightly higher opinion of the airline than they do of the president.But that isn't saying much for United. The poll also shows that 47% of respondents have an unfavorable view of United.
