A woman was removed from a flight Thursday afternoon after she “poked” her seatmate with a pen to stop him from snoring before takeoff at Midway Airport, authorities said.
The customer on Southwest Airlines Flight 577 poked the person in the next seat with a pen to keep him from snoring, a statement from Southwest spokeswoman Brandy King said.
The woman was removed from the flight and the plane took off for Manchester-Boston Regional Airport, according to the statement. No one was injured.

Side effect of the litigious society. Nobody wants to “handle” anything, because then they’ll get named in the lawsuit.
I agree, we didn’t get here because we the people were changing, we got here because it was imposed on us by the law, cops, and lawyers, and liberal political activists, and even the federal government.
Yep idiots that don’t check their work make stupid mistakes.
Take care.

” Hopefully,the lady was removed from the plane while the plane was on the ground.”
That depends on how protected a class the poker was a member of.
Give her a medal.
Funny, I hoped just the opposite.
Pen is envy.
Well played, sir.
Yeah this is Not what you do. You accidentally shift in the seat and bump the person.
A few years ago a young kid got on the plane who looked like he had just come from a Florida spring break. He was seated next to a rather distinguished, well dressed middle aged man. Once on the plane the kid fell sound asleep and fell over on the distinguished man’s chest. The man just sat there staring straight ahead looking rather uncomfortable for the entire trip. So funny.
LOL!
I was wiped out and coming home from a business trip :)
And I was a middle aged man. LOL!
Maybe she chewed her cookie into the shape of a gun.
No one needs to own an assault pen.
Fountain pen or ballpoint? Fixed or retractable tip? Inquiring minds want to know.
