I know ground delays are horrible and for claustrophobic people can be particularly bad, but did the old man flying Delta really think ripping open the emergency exit door on Delta was a smart solution to being “trapped” on the tarmac?
The incident took place on Delta flight 2879 from Atlanta (ATL) to Chicago O’Hare (ORD) on Monday, April 27, after passengers had been stuck onboard for an extended period due to severe thunderstorms and air traffic delays.
Tensions boiled over when one elderly passenger became increasingly agitated, loudly proclaiming that “you know who matters more to me than any of you,” before moving toward the door and opening it.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Live and Let's Fly.
