Passenger says Delta crew stopped her from singing anthem
WTNH Television ^ | 10/16/2017 | CNN

(AP) — A Georgia physician said her plan to honor a fallen soldier by singing the U.S. national anthem aboard a Delta Air Lines plane carrying the soldier’s casket was stopped by a flight attendant who told her it would violate company policy.

Dr. Pamela Gaudry of Savannah said she and fellow passengers were told “to stay quietly in our seats” as an honor guard escorted the casket from the plane Saturday at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. A flight attendant told her that singing “The Star Spangled Banner” would make passengers from other countries uncomfortable, she said.

Let them fly on the country’s national airline.

Delta has lost its compass.

As much as I disagree with the stupid airline policy,it was equally silly for a passenger to start a sing-a-long on a plane.

I agree. That is no time to sing the National Anthem.

Respectful silence would be best.

Personally, I would not want someone singing anything on a flight I was on. My opinion the passengers did not purchase tickets to hear someone sing. What if the lady could not sing? What if her voice was like scratching a chalk board. What if she wanted to do some type of Muslim prayer. Its not like you can just walk away. When I am flying I like to be left alone!

If she sings like my sister I don’t blame them.

When posting here, you use the title of the story,period. Not a simple search of your choosing. Which is why I saw no other stories.

Have a great day, FRiend.

I guess I missed that in the rules section ...

I agree that she should have shown respect and remained silent but that is not the reason she was given by the flight attendant.

A flight attendant told her that singing “The Star Spangled Banner” would make passengers from other countries uncomfortable, she said.

Remaining silent to show respect was the reason the flight attendant should have given her.

Agreed. She should have behaved as suggested.

Wrong answer, wench. So let them take a boat then.

No, you don’t necessarily use the full title. Not only does that entail a whole bunch of typing, but it will only pick up that headline. In this case, search only for the word ‘delta.’ That’s assuming you searched ‘title’ instead of ‘keyword’ in the first place.
