Shall we be honest here? The passenger was not ejected for HIS actions! He was ejected for someone else’s bias and/or threat. ALL flight crew training is clear, if you are still on the ground and have good reason to believe that a disruption can be avoided by rescheduling/ejecting a passenger, you are to take that action. My guess? More than one passengers and/or crew were objecting to the hat etc., so the command pilot authorized the minimal disruption.
Is it right? ‘H’ no, but it is how the LEFT bullies the system into doing it THEIR WAY. Disrupt is their best weapon!
Tough crap if people objected to the hat. Training should have them respond that we have a minimal dress code ant Southwest Airlines and political statements for major party candidates are not squelched.
BULL!!!!
I’d sue Southwest!!!!!
There’s a hungry attorney somewhere!
Exactly. The passenger taping this understood it was not about lowering the Trump mask to eat peanuts. It was the mask and hat that was disruptive!
I was on SWA the other day and this FA came by giving me the mask on hand jesture; this as I was trying to drink the water he gave me!!
The other FA came by and I held up my water and gave her the WTF look.
She leaned over and said “ don’t worry about it. The gay FA is freaking out”
