Delta Passengers Get Drunk In The Sky Club, Argue On The Plane And Break Up Inflight

A couple reportedly got drunk in a Delta Sky Club, had an argument onSeptember 16th’s Detroit – Denver flight 2431, and broke up. A flight attendant had to step in and help separate them. According to the passenger who shared the video, they eventually left the plane and went their separate ways. Sometimes passengers find love onboard with strangers. Sometimes it’s the opposite. In the video, a flight attendant can be seen leaning down toward a seated passenger, speaking directly to her as another crewmember passes behind. The person filming credits the flight attendant with calming the couple down and getting them separated. “What the actual f– ?” the passenger asks. Later: “I don’t really know, ’cause he already knows about that s***” Watch the video shared by @richgnyc on Instagram. I’ve written about a couple breaking up at the start of a flight, with the woman collapsing to the floor and screaming as airline employees intervened. A public place may seem like a good choice for a difficult conversation, because the person you’re with may not want to make a scene. But once you’re seated on a plane neither of you has anywhere to go. The people around you can’t leave, either. Recently, a woman at Denver airport said her boyfriend had canceled her flight home. His explanation was that he wasn’t going to take their argument onto an airplane. The best exchange in the comments starts with a suggestion that the couple needs Alcoholics Anonymous: @robco100: “AA badly needed.” @jostle.in.schitt: “this was on Delta, not American Airlines” @kje_jacqueline explains the Alcoholics Anonymous reference and wonders what American Airlines would do about it. @jostle.in.schitt: “it could have been avoided entirely because American would have already cancelled the flight” One commenter asks why they were allowed to board in the first place. Federal rules prohibit boarding someone who appears intoxicated, and prohibit serving them more alcohol onboard. Frequently gate agents don’t notice, and gates aren’t well staffed enough anymore generally so that passenger sobriety would get much attention. Topics on this page
