A woman being dubbed “Southwest Airlines Karen” had a meltdown during boarding of a Southwest Airlines flight. A passenger wearing a MAGA hat boarded the flight and she was triggered. The Man In The Donald Trump Hat began to film her, and she shouts “Somebody call security!” after demanding that he put his phone down.
He’s bringing politics into a metal tube that’s about to be sealed, trapping everyone – from different backgrounds and beliefs – inside. This can only serve to provoke. In fact, the reason for wearing the shirt is to provoke.
A passenger stormed Delta Air Lines gate D7 at the Atlanta airport, grabbed a fire extinguisher, and came out spraying. According to a witness, the woman dined and dashed from Buffalo Wild Wings. When she was asked to pay she unleashed herself on the rest of the terminal.
Passengers taking up the space behind them, covering up entertainment screens and tray tables, is sadly more common than you’d think. People just do not pay attention to the way they’re affecting neighboring passengers around them inside a metal tube. We all create a bubble of privacy, pretending like we’re alone. But that only works if we let others pretend they’re alone, too.
An American Airlines passenger took to TikTok to complain that, due to turbulence, there was no drink service on her flight in coach – while first class received service throughout the flight.
A woman shared the drama that unfolded on her recent flight after she and her boyfriend broke up. They were on vacation with his toddler earlier in the month, she watched the child for most of the trip while the boyfriend “had the time of his life” and it came out that he was… “still seeing his ex.”
They still had to travel home together! They were even seated together. Awkward, until a passenger sitting up front didn’t show up and an employee came back to upgrade her.
A U.S. immigration officer is facing prison after being convicted of taking up-skirt video of a flight attendant last year while on duty escorting a passenger bound for deportation.
The man faces a maximum sentence of 20 years for interfering with flight crew enroute from Dallas – Fort Worth to Miami on November 6, 2023
Nicki Minaj was arrested at Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport on Saturday enroute to the next stop in her Pink Friday 2 World Tour, apparently for weed.
Police told her that they could process her quickly enough so that she wouldn’t miss her Saturday night performance in Manchester. Her defense appears to be people I pay a lot of money to are going to take the rap for me.
A Ryanair passenger at Palma de Mallorca Airport was caught on video ripping the wheels off his carry-on bag to make it fit in the airline’s sizer and avoid fees, while fellow travelers applauded his sticking it to the man.
As the man named Daniel prepared to board his flight to Malaga, Spain he was told that his red suitcase exceeded the airline’s carry-on size limits. To bring it onboard, he would have to pay an additional US$76. He thought that was unreasonable – so he took matters into his own hands.
Basically, 99.9% of passengers accept the deal of assisting in an emergency in exchange for sitting in an exit row – or pretend to. And then there’s this woman flying Frontier from Charlotte…
She’s asked if she’ll assist in an emergency – and her reaction was oh heck no.
