FAA Fine Scoreboard

I've never had a good meal in an airport terminal, and it's not for a lack of trying. I don't know how you people do it.

I work for a company that has a few locations in the local airport here and our food is fairly good. HMS Host runs them, but we've got two of our own people overseeing the operation to ensure quality control and they use ingredients, menus and processes that we specify.

But yeah, a lot of them are trash. I used to fly in and out of STL fairly frequently and all of their restaurants were terrible.

Was this mask related?



The mask mandates on planes need to end, hopefully they will NOT be extended beyond the January date.


Lets just say there is a virtual airline I know (not real). This virtual airline said that despite what was heralded as a permanent ban for non-maskers and violaters, once the mask mandate on planes end, most WILL be allowed to fly. There would be exceptions for extreme cases (eg, ones where they physically beat up a FA). But just a guy saying no thank you, I'm not wearing a mask, and is peaceful and then landed and got banned on the virtual airline? He will be allowed to fly - no permanent ban.

And honestly, I'm all for it (as long as their incident was not violent).

It's not about masks, it's about fares.
 
Can't update my earlier post, but:
  • passenger in first class refused to wear a mask
  • "alcohol involved"
  • punched an attendant in the face twice
  • attendant's nose broken and went to the hospital
  • captain called for other volunteer passengers to assist
  • dude got duct taped to his seat
  • passenger and partner 86'ed in Denver; flight continued to SNA
  • straight to jail

American Airlines flight to O.C. diverted to Denver after passenger attacks flight attendant, airline says

A flight from New York City to John Wayne Airport made an unscheduled landing in Denver after a passenger physically assaulted a flight attendant Wednesday, according to American Airlines. After Fl…

I anticipate this is gonna be one of those instances where the airline seeks to recoup the cost of the diversion from the dude.

Seems like way to many flights originate or terminate in Florida or Las Vegas.

Try a LGA-PBI flight.

If you’re able to depart, cruise and land without the *brbrbrbrbrbrbbl* and “we’ve got a situation” you’re tremendously fortunate.

Not surprisingly, Florida, New York and Vegas seem to be a common denominator in most of these.


I'm still convinced this is a product of people flying using their stimulus dollars that probably wouldn't be otherwise.

Ironically, those outfits were absolutely and unequivocally covered by the CDC's Emergency Order of January 29, 2021.

Now that we're all done laughing...but yeah, any means any, and properly speaking, yes, even 91K and 135 operators are required to comply. It is not, and has never been, differentiated by the kind of certificate applied to the conveyance.

I’m not talking about CDC requirements. I’m referring to dealing with disruptive / abusive paxs.

I wonder if this is really something new or if simply that more are caught on video.



I've found there is no conceivable situation that I'm not directly involved in that my presence makes materially better. Literally zero upside.

FAA Levies $225,287 Against Passengers for Alleged Assault-Related Unruly Behavior
WASHINGTON – The U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) proposes $225,287 in civil penalties against 10 airline passengers for alleged unruly behavior involving physical assault. Since Jan. 1, 2021, the FAA has received more than 100 reports of passenger disturbances involving physical assault. Federal law prohibits passengers from assaulting fellow passengers or crew aboard a flight.

The rate of unruly passenger incidents on commercial flights has dropped sharply since the FAA launched its Zero Tolerance campaign but the rate remains too high. Detailed current data on these incidents is available on our unruly passenger webpage.

As part of the FAA's Reauthorization Bill (PDF) FAA can propose up to $37,000 per violation for unruly passenger cases. Previously, the maximum civil penalty per violation was $25,000. One incident can result in multiple violations.
