The other passengers won’t stand by in any future efforts. I’ve been on flights where people acted up. It never progressed to the point of a fight but numerous men were prepared to step in if needed.

In 2002 I was booked on a flight from DC to New Orleans the day the first post-9/11 Super Bowl was to be played there. I was concerned till I got on the plane and saw a crowd of “Good Ole Boys” from LA, heading home from a Mardi Gras ball. There was no way that group would have let anyone take control of that flight.

Isn't there a more gender neutral way of saying that?

thank you!

I fly most every week. I am one of those pampered special-privilege fliers who gets the pick of seats, boards early, etc.

ialso am always in an aisle seat for this very reason.

no one is ever going to be unopposed in any attempt to take over a US flight. period. and not because of me, but rather all the frequent fliers who ‘get it.’ ALL of the me’s

sent from my mobile. on the flight 22 D. aisle.
