Airlilne embarassment
On a recent flight, a man was accused of threatening a flight attendant. He didn't. Lots of witnesses. Being that this is a serious accusation, i spoke up in his defense. ''he didn't threaten anyone and you are harassing him. can we please have a quiet flight'' Suddenly I am being yelled at and told i am threatening her. A woman then asks her about getting meds from luggage for her epileptic child due to the wait. She is now also accused of threatening. We all get kicked off the plane. No charges are filed but we did have to give a report to police.
Public embarassment and i never made it to my destination.
Is there a suit here? defamation?
Re: Airlilne embarassment
Airlines have the legal right to refuse passage to any passenger who displays disruptive behavior. As long as you were not singled out for a discriminatory reason and were not physically injured, your claim appears to have little merit.
However, a well-worded letter to the airline may result in some form of compensatory measure.
Good luck!
