On an American Eagle flight that had been delayed already fpr several hours, a flight attendant loses his cool with passengers, some of which were able to take video clips of the incident from their phones. A passenger from first class who witnessed the audio parts of the incident said passengers were to blame as well.
“I don’t want to hear anything… period. Once we close the door” can be heard from the video clip provided by one passenger. Another catches this fragment before the attendant actually closes the door “So if you have balls (interperated by several passengers asking each other if that was actually said) this is your time, otherwise you are going to have to comply with Jose”
A passenger David Ables, said “people were shocked” and leaving the plane. He commented he would have followed, but he needed to get accompany his daughter home to her mother ASAP and was unsure of how long it would take him to get onto another flight. He said she wasn’t the only frightened child, that children could be heard crying when the attendant was speaking.
The flight never left the airport. No word was given from the American Airlines regarding the tickets of the passengers or any word about the attendants behavior.
