Passengers

Doug,

I'm not sure if you've done this before, but why don't you post about some of your more annoying or amusing passengers.

I overheard someone on Atlanta Radio yesterday dealing with a drunk lady that was grabbing the crotches of her seat mates.. She also got up with a cigarette and lighter and tried to get into the lav and then started swearing at the FAs... The captain wanted the police to meet the flight, but not to arrest her. He only wanted them to scare her.

Coming from the 1900 and now flying the CRJ, I've had my share of unruly passengers. In my view, her actions requied a night in jail to think about it. What do you think?
 
I am sure she got a to visit the local precint to think about it. Nothing funnier that watching drunk old ladies come down the jetway stairs still talking to the cop saying they are fine and on the way to the son/daughters or a convention.
 
Well, I did get to see a drunk guy get pulled off a plane, get in a fight with the captain, found out his girlfriend was a 15 year old runaway who was supposed to be under house arrest, and watched him get manhandled down the jetway to the waiting police car on the ramp.

I have a feeling Doug's response is gonna be "Wait for the book."

While not anything to specific, just in general.......I just throw my hands up in the air when passengers start yelling at crew members or airline personnel because the flight is delayed because of weather. Now that I speak my mind a little bit more, and if I really want to amuse myself, i'll probably go up to one of these "unruly" passengers and say "Do you honestly think that XYZ Airline employees just create bad thunderstorms at DFW or Blizzards at MSP just to piss you off? No, so get over it!"

My favorite question from working at Disney/Universal/Sea World....


"Um, excuse me. When is going to stop raining?"

I actually had a friend act like he was trying to reach god on his radio to get an answer.
 
Everytime I am on a passenger jet I carry my can of major league whoop ass (the travelling sized one, that stores in the overhead, and under the seat infront of you). If anyone misbehaves, they are in trouble.

I have not had to use my can of major league whoop ass yet - which is a good thing, as much like a rocket engine, once it is opened you can not stop it, it has to run dry, which depending how hard their face is could take a long time.
 
Well if there is always a thunderstorm at DFW, why did you put the airport there in the 1st place? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif

Actually that is a very good point, why are the biggest hub airports in the US at classic bad weather locations?
 
B/c aparently for some reason, large populations tend to live in bad weather areas. I don't think city planners looked at the weather in ATL, DFW, or anywhere in the northeast before they broke ground. Then again, there were no satellites then. Kinda hard to have a hub in the middle of nowhere. You at least want to make SOME money off people that live in the city.
