On a Southwest flight Sunday from Sacramento to San Diego, an unruly passenger attacked a flight attendant, knocking out two of her teeth and bloodying her face.

The police arrested Vyvianna Quinonez, and charged her with battery causing serious bodily injury.
San Diego authorities charged a 28-year-old woman with felony battery after an attack on a Southwest Airlines plane in which a flight attendant lost two teeth and suffered other injuries to her face.
The incident marked an escalation in unruly behavior by airline passengers and led the president of the flight attendants’ union to ask for more federal air marshals on planes.
“Unfortunately, this is just one of many occurrences,” said the union president, Lyn Montgomery. She said there were 477 incidents of “misconduct” by passengers on Southwest planes between April 8 and May 15.
There are allegations that one of the reasons for the incident was yet again a face mask!
The Federal Aviation Administration said Monday that airlines have reported 2,500 incidents of unruly passengers this year, including 1,900 cases in which passengers refused to wear face masks, which are required by federal rule.
The FAA provided those numbers as it announced it was seeking civil penalties totaling $54,500 against five passengers for behavior ranging from refusing to wear a mask to assaulting flight attendants.
About time someone punched out one of those air Nazis.
"Criminal, psycho, bitch, lunatic"
People know the rules. If they don’t want to wear a mask then don’t fly. These episodes are not about masks, they are about thugs believing they have been dissed because someone tells them they have to follow the rules. Whether drunk or just an ass these same people are problems at work and problems at home. Anti social behavior. The fines should be 10 times higher and come with jail time. To disrupt the travel of a couple hundred other people is unacceptable.
lower prices for traveling attracts trash that otherwise would have to stay home in their trailers
Couldnt agree more. Some of of these maskholes, including some cops deserve a punch in the face.
They keep poking the bear and wonder why it eventually fights back.
Which one?
My best friend who has had to fly lately told me that the flights are totally filled with denizens of the Jerry Springer show.
“About time someone punched out one of those air Nazis.”
Im sure being a flight attendant is a real fun job. I’m guessing if the flight attendant was your daughter or son, you might not have made the comment that you did.
I totally and absolutely agree with what you posted. The flight attendant didn’t make the rules but you can bet if she didn’t enforce them she would lose her job. The psycho who physically assaulted her is the type of person that would assault anyone if they aren’t getting their way. I agree with jail time plus the thousands of dollars it will take to either fix her teeth or implants AND be barred from that airline for life.
I could not disagree more with that statement, if you are passenger on a plane today you know the rules sit down abide by the rules and STFU because it’s not about a single person on that plane it’s about people trying to get somewhere for business to see a family member or start a vacation who all had to put up with a delay caused by some mouthy bitch that can’t follow the rules, I say this as someone who has over 1 million frequent flyer miles and been on hundreds of flights
Luv is in the air.....
Fly the friendly skies.....
No, thanks!
Mask rule or not, there’s NO excuse for what the thug did. Jail time please.
The psychotic criminal a*****e bitch who assaulted the flight attendant.
Ah, yes, Womyn. The Gentle Sex. All about relationships and not war or aggression.
The World would be so peaceful if only Womyn were in charge, like they were in the Golden Age of Pre-history, before the Abrahamic Patriarchy spoiled Eden.
Misogynistic Sarcasm Alert. Code Pink. /S
Non like ‘em angry broads.
This bitch is lucky she’s got Brown Privilege, she’ll be out in three years.
If I get reminded to remask, I just say "sorry" and meekly comply.
I don't throw a hissy fit even though I am certainly big enough to beat up darn near any flight attendant.
In addition to what you said, these jag-offs also need to be put on a flight ban list ranging from a minimum of one year to lifetime for the more serious injuries.
When I was a flight attendant, one night I was working out of the back galley and a passenger approached me when everyone was deplaning. He was beyond irate that he had to check one of his bags as he was getting on our flight and took it out on me. He cornered me against the back door and punched me in the chest. He had acted in such rage that even he was surprised at what he did. I fell back and crumbled on the floor. A caterer had seen it happen when he was opening the other door and went to help me. The passenger ran off, bypassing the other flight attendants who were helping someone in a wheelchair just off the jetway. Never did find the guy- he was short, fat, balding and had wire rim glasses- just like 90% of the other flying public. Knowing nothing would be done by my company (us airways), I just sucked it up, finished my trip and called in sick for the next 2 weeks.
These people need hard core jail time and heavy fines so they have the time to contemplate the wrongness of their actions and the sacrifice of having to do without little luxury items such as food and utilities as they struggle to pay those fines when they get out.
