Passenger removed from flight after heated exchange with cabin crew | Trending

A passenger on an American Airlines flight was asked to get off the plane. Reason? He constantly complained about a fellow traveller hogging the overhead bin space with too many bags. Another passenger recorded the incident on camera and shared the video on social media. The passenger was kicked out of an American Airlines flight after he argued with a cabin crew member over locker space. (Reddit/@Cool_Disaster2484) In the video, the man, in a yellow t-shirt with his hair in a top knot, is heard saying, “This guy put his luggage up here, now we don’t have any space,” as other passengers continue to board the plane. “He’s got no space. Look,” he remarked, gesturing towards the passenger sitting across the aisle. A cabin crew member quickly intervened and said, “Sir, I’m going to ask one more time. You need to stop with this whole luggage situation,” pointing his finger in the passenger’s face. To this, the passenger said, “You point your finger at me one more time, I’m calling the police.” Towards the end, an airline employee asks the woman with the man if she intends to stay on the flight. “No I’m going with him,” the woman says. The man then stood up, removed his bags from the storage bin above his seat, and walked out of the plane. “Guy freaks out over overhead storage on flight and gets himself kicked off the plane,” reads the caption written alongside the video shared on Reddit community ‘Public Freakout’ a user ‘Cool_Disaster2484’. In the description of the video, the Reddit user wrote, “Ironically, he had like four big bags on the overhead bins. I left out the horrendous rac comments he made to the gentleman who put his luggage in the overhead bin.” Watch the video shared on Reddit below: The video was shared four days ago on Reddit.
