First: This article confirms some long-held suspicions: Bumping into the “wrong” flight attendant can have serious consequences. For those doing a lavatory run, consider yourself warned!
I don’t know that this guy’s “voluntary” de-boarding was all that voluntary. Delta offered to remove the flight attendant, but said it would take an hour to find a replacement. Who wants to be on a flight and sitting next to some people who may refuse to recognize the flight attendant was acting like a jerk, and say it’s all your fault.
Second: I felt this article fits-in to what could be considered the broad topic of this thread—unjust actions on the part of flight attendant. Yes, I know, we can debate until we’re blue in the face about what is, and isn’t ok. Some on here would find a way to justify ordering a passenger to sit on the wing—in-flight!
Third: In the interest of keeping Phx happy, I used the NY Post article, rather than the Daily News. The former is probably more inclined to be a mouthpiece for the Air Transport Association.
Fourth: This is the script for the “reply” to this post:
See, he has (domestic) assault charges pending! The cops probably offered to remove the flight attendant because they (the cops) were scared to death of the guy!! In fact, he probably would have beat-up his wife in-flight! Thus, probably, according to the flight attendant and 66% of this board, Delta was encouraging wife-beating by re-booking, and upgrading him. So see, I can sound just like a 66 per center, if I want to!
Finally: I guess I’m in big trouble now. I did NOT get permission, from Jetliner, to make this post. So it’s “report button” time. It’s truly amazing that 66% of this board is screeming denial of free speech as if strength in numbers is a totally meaningless idea!
