Flight attendant loses it over simple request

A flight was cancelled after a flight attendant lost it at a passenger who reportedly made a very simple request.

A flight was cancelled after a flight attendant lost it at a passenger who reportedly requested a blanket.

Air Canada has apologised over the incident and said it “deeply regrets” that passengers’ experiences fell far short of what they have come to expect from the airline.

Flight AC73 was heading to Montreal from Morocco when an incident erupted between a cabin crew staffer and a passenger on Friday.

Footage of the incident has since gone viral on social media, showing a female flight attendant yelling at a female passenger.

“You will behave or we will get off!” the fight attendant can be heard saying in footage captured by another passenger.

“I’ll tell the captain right away. Yes or no?”

When a passenger asks the flight attendant to call the captain, she refuses and says: “I don’t want no bullying against my crew”.

Footage then showed her storming up the aisle before turning around and shouting, “Everyone behave! Be quiet … or you’re getting off.”

According to CTV News, the incident was sparked when the passenger asked for a blanket.

In a statement to the publication, Air Canada said the flight had been rescheduled for Saturday and a different crew would be on board.

“We are taking this incident very seriously. It is under review, and we will take appropriate action,” the statement read.

“We apologise to our customers and deeply regret that their experience today fell far short of what they have come to expect when flying with Air Canada.”

The airline has also offered passengers compensation for the delay and the incident.

Meanwhile, this week, pilot audio went viral on X after a United Airlines was forced to divert when cabin crew fell ill and started to vomit.

United Airlines 2477 was bound for Boston from Houston on Sunday morning local time when a situation so severe unfolded it had land in Washington instead.

The airline told news.com.au the plane needed to undergo “a deep clean” after a passenger “experienced a medical issue”.

“I talked to the crew and it sounds like it’s quite bad back there,” a pilot on board said to air traffic control in audio shared on X.

“The crew is vomiting, and passengers all around are asking for masks etc … with this being a biohazard I think we need to get this plane on the ground asap.”

According to the New York Post, the airline confirmed none of the 155 passengers or its six crew members required medical help.
