Not many things worse than someone acting up on a plane.

You're right, it's frightening! I'm a white knuckle flyer as is and I remember being on one Christmas flight where the pilot wouldn't take off until the woman who was seated beside the emergency exit moved her seat. She was beyond intoxicated so they didn't want her sitting there and she was extremely belligerent about it, it was quite unnerving and we weren't even off the ground yet.

Honestly. It baffles me seeing people act like idiots on a plane. I've never been on a plane where someone flipped out but I've seen people act like jerks.

Thank God it was a short flight because I couldn't help myself, I kept thinking 'What if she moves back?' in "I'll frigging show them" kind of way. You know?

Honestly I don't get people who have a fit like that in public, intoxicated or not. Have these people never been around other people before? It's embarrassing, I'm embarrassed for them.

Would be usefull if they made a rule that say, "If a passenger risk endangering the plane,and the lives of the other passengers,others can tie him or her up,until the plane reach its destination"

I think they do that, since 911 anyway. But I could be wrong.

I like that idea....but better would be "the other passengers can tie him or her up & graffiti
them with magic markers, until the plane reach its destination."

He must have some money.

You don't get to be senator by being poor.

They are losers with a nice veneer that alcohol removes.
