‘Disruptive’ passenger kicks chair on United flight from Austin to Los Angeles
The FAA says it’s investigating after a passenger turned “disruptive” aboard a United Airlines flight touring from Austin to Los Angeles earlier this month.
Footage of the incident reveals the passenger standing on prime of one of many seats and repeatedly kicking it as fellow passengers sit calmly close by.
Police in Los Angeles stated they decided the passenger was “under the influence and suffering from a medical episode.” United stated the airline has banned the client from touring on future flights with the airline.
Airlines have reported greater than 1,800 unruly passenger incidents in 2024.
