“It’s really hard to believe that an AA jet bound for LAX would instead land in New Mexico and screw up its own schedule and everyone else’s just because someone lit up a cigarette.”
I say the guy was drinking and lit up. I also say he is not a frequent flyer! lol
Get this...
Flt. 117 left JFK @ 1407 EDT (2:07pm)
arrived at ABQ @ 1632 MDT (4:32pm)
They removed the passenger and were scheduled
to leave for LAX @ 1700 MDT (5:00pm)
Instead, the actual time of departure was 2229 (10:29pm)
They arrived in LAX at 2310 (11:10pm)
LOL. Good calls!
Do we know exactly where he lit up? In the facility, which set off the "possible bomb alarm?"
Secondly, do we know his name yet? I mean, can we rule out Muslim?
It's late, please forgive me for my silliness. I would be such a MAD passenger, considering the downtime on the ground/delay of that flight.
