oliver..the airline was southwest and they do not have assigned seating..passengers board by a group number and can sit wherever they like,except at an exit..airlines cannot "discriminate" by separating passengers seats,unless the flight is full and people travelling together cannot be seated close to one another..the exception as i stated are exit rows by faa requirements.."airline staff" persons as you call them,are well aware of seating availability,accommodating passengers requests and other such..obviously this group did not get "rowdy" on the plane until well into the flight as they were going from san diego to chicago and the flight diverted to Amarillo..an airline is not responsible for the actions of a passenger who has been security screened,boards an airplane and decides while flying to be disruptive..you can rest assured the other passengers were not happy,not so much about the diversion, but about the rowdy group...
I do recommend large group to be split in planes or hotels for other guests tranquility and safety.
Thank you for attention
Thank you for attention
i do belive the airline is faulty too.
i got some 4 star hotels in europe and ALWAYS dispatch groups all over the hotel different floors and corridors to avoid them doing noise and disturbances.i never understood why airlines do the opposite.
this is probably the root cause ..because airport staff don't fly ..
beside adult attending kids , group of more than 4 should be splited all over the plane.

Follow the rules. What is so hard about that?
If I might add...FAA Regulations 91.11, 121.580, and 135.120 states that "no person may assault, threaten, intimidate or interfere with a crew member or the crew members duties aboard an aircraft being operated. It's a Federal Rule! If Pax disregard the rule...the crew can put those unruly pax down. Very unfortunate for the good pax. But this is what it's come to.
Thankyou Jimmy Carter. Deregulation was the start of the end of aviation as we knew it. Everything declined...Airlines went bankrupt and mergerd...forgive me but...the trailer trash people flooded the airways. Creating big time trouble. I flew during that time and saw my airline go down the gutter like many others. Very sad. It used to be fun. Meeting people...then we, as a crew had to defend ourselves from the people. These guys committed a Federal Law.
