It’s not uncommon to see people removed from flights for poor behavior. However, here’s an interesting twist on that, as it seemed not all employees at the airline were on the same page about removing a traveler.
Police were called to a United flight, after receiving reports of an intoxicated passenger onboard who was causing a disturbance. As the police arrived at the plane, one of the flight attendants explained that the crew (including the captain) wanted the passenger seated in 24F off the aircraft.
While the initial interaction was happening, one of the gate agents was at the passenger’s seat, and she soon returned to the forward galley. That’s where it gets interesting — the gate agent seemingly came out in full defense of the passenger, asking the flight attendant if she’s sure that the passenger was under the influence of something.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
