Airline passengers fined $20,000 as US agency cracks down on unruly fliers
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has announced fines totaling $20,000 against two airline passengers who interfered with crews. The civil penalties come as as part of a zero-tolerance policy designed to combat a surge of similar cases in recent months. The agency said it will seek a $10,500 fine against a passenger who repeatedly ignored orders to wear a mask, which is required by federal regulation, then coughed and blew his nose into a blanket during a JetBlue flight from Fort… (www.theguardian.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
We are seeing the results of a couple generations of poor parenting. My Johnny could never have done that; you must be mistaken. My Johnny is such a sweet boy and never does anything wrong. Johnny never had any consequences for his poor behavior. Those unruly brats I used to see behaving like animals while waitressing 30 years ago are now full grown, entitled, self-centered, poorly behaved adults. That is why our society is falling apart.
I do not excuse the nasty behaviour of these folks. BUT, fines (or jail time as some are commenting) for not wearing a mask? the mask "mandate" is unconstitutional in the first place! We the people have to stop believing the lies of the "professionals". They aren't giving us science. Please people, do your own research. the more we give in to the government and act like they know best (which they don't) the more freedom we lose! we have to get back what we lost so that our children and grandchildren can enjoy the freedom we have.
Why can’t adults act mature ? Just sit the hell down and behave. They are like republicans they want it their way
And their way only and screw everyone else..

I say a beating that they won't forget for life is the only way.
I agree most airline employees deserve this. Especially United employees.
2 things....
1> when is the same standard going to be applied to people's conduct OFF a plane. Seems that as a society we are allowing more and more unruly (and flatly illegal) conduct of people - and punishing the enforcers when they try to hold those dipshidiots accountable. Very interesting how the fed takes 2 different perspectives for the same kinds of behaviour in 2 different venues.
2> we need to get this mask nonsense no longer considered "unruly".

A new work in my vocabulary: "Dipshidiot". Thanks!
