Passengers are out of control on flights (1 Viewer)

 So how does this work?  If you’re deathly allergic to animals do you let the airline know when you purchase your ticket (with doctors proof) and if there are currently know animals booked for the flight they will make it a flight where they dont allow animals?  If its not set up like that, maybe it should be.   For those that dont know, you have to call ahead and pay for a animal you are bringing with you.  They only allow 3 dogs per flight on southwest, not sure on others.  I love animals and travel with my dog 4-5 times a year, but certainly wouldnt want someone to have a severe reaction over it.  I mean, they dont serve peanuts if someone has a peanut allergy, don’t let animals on if someone can prove they have a severe reaction just by being in the vicinity of animals and they prove it when they book the flight assuming no on had previously booked an animal on it.  Also, they should enforce the rules that your animals have to stay in their carry on bag the entire time in the airport.  I’m the first person to walk up and ask someone if I can pet their dog when they have them out of their carrier because I cant resist petting a dog, but the rules say they have to stay in. So enforce it.

According to her lawyers, Daulatzai, a professor at the Maryland Institute College of Art, alleges that she never asked for the dogs to be removed from the plane, never claimed to have life-threatening allergies and was never asked for medical certification. She was forced off the plane, she alleges, because of who she is: a woman of color and of the Islamic faith.

Turns out she is NOT deathly allergic to animals. Go figure. She just doesn't like dogs.

But now she pulls the "race" card and claims she was removed because she is a muslim woman.

... cus you know how Southwest is about not allowing any female muslim passengers.

I hope she goes to jail.

Did she watch her own video of the incident? Spin works, but when she is just acting the fool maybe it is time to find a better lawyer.

This lady is a complete POS that should be shunned.  Unbelievable.  I hope the people sitting next to or around her testify and make her look like the idiot she is.  Wow. 

eta:  I hope this idiot spend a month or so in jail. Please give her a judge that is looking to make a point.

Wow. Just wow! This is nuts. She would've been much better off issuing an apology and hoping all of this goes away. People that do her performance reviews and can approve her tenure are undoubtedly watching all this unfold. She would be much better off if she didn't make matters worse by pulling this crap. 

 
If you're ever on trial for slapping a kid for kicking the back of your seat, try and get me on your jury.  I will be sympathetic.

 
Ever see a dog on a car ride?  MUCH effing happier than during a plane ride.

Love your animal?  Get where you're going in a car, bring the pooch, and know that he's enjoying the heck out of it.

Full Disclosure: I voted "dog" in the old drowning poll

Edit: got a little harsh in the beginning.

Why do you say that, that news report seems to put her claim in a positive light.  I mean its an airline and a brown woman with a hoodie, of course she was a victim here.

 
So let's assume a 2 hour flight.  Per suggestions, you need to be at the airport 2 hours early...so, that's 4 hours where your dog won't have yard access. What happens if the dog has to piss, mid flight?  How does this work?

A few years ago, I was waiting to get on a flight.  Someone had a dog in the gate area on a leash, letting people come up and play with him.  The dog took a piss on the carpet right there in the gate area.  Now, I've seen parents let their infant kids walk around in this area, and here is a dog answering nature's call right there.  It's disgusting, and frankly, cruel to the dog to expect h to hold it.

Has anyone invented doggy diapers yet?

AND a professor. Don't forget she's a self important professor!

 
I'm about to get on a plane to Denver.  Boarding is delayed because a dog had an accident on the plane.  Why is this OK?

 
 So how does this work?  If you’re deathly allergic to animals do you let the airline know when you purchase your ticket (with doctors proof) and if there are currently know animals booked for the flight they will make it a flight where they dont allow animals?  If its not set up like that, maybe it should be.   For those that dont know, you have to call ahead and pay for a animal you are bringing with you.  They only allow 3 dogs per flight on southwest, not sure on others.  I love animals and travel with my dog 4-5 times a year, but certainly wouldnt want someone to have a severe reaction over it.  I mean, they dont serve peanuts if someone has a peanut allergy, don’t let animals on if someone can prove they have a severe reaction just by being in the vicinity of animals and they prove it when they book the flight assuming no on had previously booked an animal on it.  Also, they should enforce the rules that your animals have to stay in their carry on bag the entire time in the airport.  I’m the first person to walk up and ask someone if I can pet their dog when they have them out of their carrier because I cant resist petting a dog, but the rules say they have to stay in. So enforce it. 
Like the idea of a no-pet flight, but that would only work if you have multiple flights between locations.  I can also see connections being an issue as you'd need to clear both flights.

The way I look at it, it should be first come first served.  If a person has proof of a deadly allergic reaction to a pet and purchases a ticket (as there were no pets set up to that point), then no pets should be allowed on the flight subsequent.  Alternatively, if someone has paid for a pet to be on the flight, the person with the deadly allergy will just need to find another flight.

 
No, I would toss a treat onto the wing and open the door. 


This reads like one of my posts.
I assume it is beacause you would need to open the door ... THEN toss the treat onto the wing.

... unless maybe your plane has windows that open ... and if that is the case, I think you've been duped into thinking your Mexican bus ride is a flight.

:drive:
I somehow read through the autocorrects, but couldn't get past this part of it. 

 
The little dog yapping in the back of the plane is lucky I'm sitting up front. 
Maybe you should show some compassion and try to listen to him. He may be saying how much he hates his owner for taking him on flights as he is afraid of flying, and how no one asked him if wanted an emotional support job. It was just thrust upon him like a slave. 

 
My dad was flying from Phoenix.  Right before the plane was about to start moving a group of "ladies" on the flight were arguing and starting throwing fists.  Was a mess.  They removed all of them from the plane.  They could be seen outside with some security folk.   They were starting to let them back on to the plane, but they starting arguing and brawling again.  Needless to say, they were not allowed to board after that.  No idea why there was any consideration for them to be allowed back on after the first brawl.

No, the ladies were not attractive.  No pics.

 
I would rather drive places than fly, and I hate to drive as it is. All the rigamarole of getting there forever early to deal with security who put up with more crap than a portajohn at Woodstock, shuffling into a germ-filled metal tube to be jammed in like sardines for 3 hours at a time? No thanks.

How in the world is this possible?  I would be pissed if i were your father.  Airline?

 
Flying in the US is becoming like riding a bus in Mexico. 
Yep, it is horrible.  My drive radius for work has ballooned the past couple years.  And I only travel approx once every month or two.  Hate flying more and more every time.  I can't get to many places direct anymore either and that opens up all kinds of other issues.

Yesterday I was the only person on the plane with an open seat next to me.  But of course there was some weight/balance issue and some wide dude volunteered to move from the front to the middle of the plane next to me.  I worked hard pinning down that seat!  I'd have taken the chance...

That must have been one seriously small commuter plane for an individual to make any difference in the weight and balance of the aircraft.

I think people fly because they want to get somewhere faster, not because they enjoy the experience.

 
Not at all...2 seat rows from front to back.  I think they lied to screw me. 
This happened to me all the time on this little puddle jumper to Nashville from St. Louis. It had two seat wide rows on the right and then an aisle and a single seat across the aisle and only 7 rows. I get that. But once I had that happen to me on a DC10. I'm sorry, but if moving my 190 lbs forward 10 rows or across the aisle is not going to make a damn bit of difference in a 240,000 lb plane.

I think people bring emotional support animals on flights because they want to enjoy the experience, not because they want to get somewhere faster.

Some old lady was at the store yesterday with a poodle that had Service Animal or something similar written on a doggie vest. That should be illegal except for genuine Service dogs.

Hard to imagine a destination city like Cleveland doesn't have enough non-stops going in and out of it.
