Woman kicked off plane for crying over father's heart attack

[joslar15]

Could be that it's getting more press these days, but it seems that airlines arbitrarily booting passengers has been increasing recently. If they can boot an adult for crying over her ill father, why do they tolerate other annoying people?

So they boot these two off (granted, with a hotel stay, meal, and rebooking provided by the airline, props for that) yet they keep the Wailing Banshee Spawn from the Lowest Pits of Hades (children)? It's their business, they can do what they want, but if we're booting passengers for being annoying this customer would happily point out the most annoying.

Maybe she was scaring the children. Can't have them expose to sorrow and death it was hurt their little self esteem!

As if the groping and more personal info than my mortgage company needed wasn't enough for these people. I have not flown since my gram died in 2005 and that was only because my dad just brought me a ticket. I will not get on a plane.

They should have tied her into her seat and injected her with tranquilizers.

"I broke down and started to cry and I'm a little bit afraid to fly, so I said to the stewardess as she was passing, 'When you're going to be serving, I'll have a glass of wine,' Wheatley told ABC 7 San Francisco.

The flight attendant told Wheatley she'd had enough, even though Wheatley hadn't had any wine on the plane.

hmmm...

Nah, shoulda just had a nun hit her in the face with a guitar.

at least she wasn't too tall.

And I suppose that wearing the "Red Baron" type flight helmet, scarf, and goggles would get one tossed off also?...sheesh. I guess that the airlines are certainly not more "customer oriented" than they used to be...

Modern passenger commercial aircraft are getting more and more like cattle cars...and in Europe in the 1930-1944 time frame, we all know where the "cattle cars" went...

SNERK!

Not enough info here to draw a conclusion. Sounds fishy to me, though.
