(Full article title: Raging woman kicked off Delta Air Lines flight after throwing a tantrum when she was sat next to a mum and baby)

(snip) Video of the drama was shared on social media by Marissa Rundell who was on the flight to Syracuse, New York, on February 6.

The 19-year-old – who was travelling with her eight-month-old son Mason – said the woman started shouting and swearing after boarding the aircraft last.

She told the Daily Mail the unidentified woman “slammed” down her bags and starting ranting that it was “f***ing ridiculous” that she had to sit at the back of the plane.

Marissa claims she asked the irate passenger to mind her language around her son, but she ignored her.

When she asked again, the mum claims the woman told her to “shut the f*** up and shove it”.

A stewardess then came over to try and calm the situation, at which point the passenger started to complain about having to sit next to a “crying baby”.

The flight attendant can be heard in the clip offering to seat the woman on the following flight.

But the customer refuses, instead asking for the staff member’s name.

When she replies that she is called Tabitha, the woman can be heard saying: “Thank you Tabitha, you may not have a job, tomorrow.”

At this point the flight attendant turns to someone off-screen and says: “I want this lady off my flight.”

The angry passenger then suddenly changes her tune, apologising and begging to be allowed to stay on board.

But it did no good and she was reportedly forced to leave the plane,

This angry lady was the last to board. She was given the only seat left on the plane. Why should she get special treatment?

She only apologized after mouthing off one time too many with the flight attendant. She only changed her tune when she found out they were going to kick her off that flight.

She got kicked off for good reason. They don't allow her bad behavior on board commercial airlines anymore.

I had a friend who got kicked off a domestic flight for flipping the bird at the flight attendants. He was met at the gate by law enforcement authorities and questioned for sometime before being released.

Dealing with a disruptive passenger at 30,000 feet in the air is not a good situation. So off they go before the flight departs.

People don't have a "right" to fly on an airplane. It is a privilege controlled by the pilot and crew.

I appreciate the mother not wanting her son being exposed to bad language, although at 8 months I doubt he would that affected but he is old enough to recognize rage and that is likely to upset him. (BTW, Mom should follow her own advice on crude language.) Children are naturally frightened of angry adults. I also appreciate the fact that Mom dressed her son as a manly little boy. Red buffalo plaid flannel with suspenders - nice. No mistaking that is a little boy.

The flight was from NYC to Syracuse. That's about 45-minute flight. Even if the little boy screamed the whole time, it's not that long a flight. Toughen up, Buttercup. No need to throw a fit. I'm glad that stupidity has consequences. I really hope that getting kicked off the plane created all kinds of problems for her. She deserved it after threatening the flight attendant.

Why? The situation had been handled by the airline, and no harm was done to Ms. Rundell or her son.

To embarrass -- justifiably -- the nasty woman who was so rude. Perhaps she'll think twice before being so nasty in the future.

You have NO idea what you are talking about...I WAS in the left lane! You must be a female!

LMAO! No idea what I'm talking about? You just confirmed that you were in the left lane and faster traffic was having to pass you on the left. You must be a di#%.

Looks like the Woman got the last Seat. She was offered a Seat on the next Flight and refused. I guess she ended up on it anyway. LOL

Probably just hopped on her (reinforced) broom and DIY'd the trip.

A baby can’t help it, they cry, my problem is always with parents who refuse to even TRY to do anything about it or act is if they don’t know a child is crying.....Acknowledging the situation is almost always a difuser amongst civilized people.
As for me, when I fly, I always have to pop some sort of tranquilizer, so a bull-elephant can be stomping thru the aisles and I’m in Wonkaland no matter.

She said she worked for the governor but still got kicked off, guess that didn’t help her much.

A very pretty and young mom with a cute as heck little boy versus a fat, nasty, entitled lesbian.

I think there may have been a bit of deep down jealousy involved as the skank found out she was going to have to sit next to something she would never have.

That’s true of over fifty men and working class men

Younger white men and earning class men run their mouths

They grew up where there was no cost attached

I first noticed this when we moved from working class to rich sis of town when I was 15

I couldn’t believe the put downs you could hurl free of charge at someone

Some folks hate to sit next to babies

Having had thirty years experience and counting I don’t hear it like those I accustomed do

I usually offer to help

I don’t like it when they kick my seat from behind ..I’ll let it go a few minutes then I politely ask

I had some kids slamming cards on fold down table...from my chair....they were 20 something’s

I asked politely

They quit....they were terrified....decent kids just unaware

I’m old and beat up big time.....and six five 235 lbs ..I fly first class period.....I do look for deals but still.....forward cabin nowadays only for my old butt

Babies (and toddlers) are lot more cute in photographs than they are in person.

I had one kicking the back of my seat non-stop on a 3 hr flight. Not pleasant.

OTOH I once got seated next to an adorable Chinese infant being brought to the US. Then another Chinese infant appeared. They were both adorable and I figured they would sleep for most of the trans-con flight. Lucky me - the very nice flight attendant told me to get my things. I figured I was being moved to the back of steerage. No way - she took me to first class. It pays not to complain. Actually I think the FA wanted to give the two women/babies an empty middle seat.

screaming babies is the main reason to carry noise-cancelling headphone on planes at all times.

Yes Cosby is slime, but if you watch it was a funny routine.

Cosby probably is slime but his "Bill Cosby, Himself" is one of the funniest comedy routines ever made. No swearing and your sides will hurt from laughing after watching.

Thank goodness we got the DVD before all the stuff happened and Hollywood now tries to erase him from history.
