Passenger disrupts 8-hour flight — Captain shuts her down after landing

Logan, a 27-year old six-two inches tall professional swimmer, was returning from a freestyle swimming competition.

The flight from London to New York was about to last eight hours, enough time for him to rest before heading home. He planned to sleep through the flight and regain his energy so that he could go straight to his younger sister and tell her everything about the trip.

Since he booked his flight in the last minute, he ended up in economy class. Well, it wasn’t that it bothered him a great deal. He was just hoping to a safe and quiet flight back home.

When he located his seat, a woman in her 20s was already seated by the window. She smiled at him and said, “It looks like we’re going to be neighbors for some time.” Logan smiled back and nodded.

Everything seemed fine by that point, until a well dressed woman took the seat on Logan’s right side.

She arrived at the very last second and was visibly irritated. She struggled with her overstuffed bag and muttered as she tried to fit it under the seat.

When the flight attendant asked the passengers to fasten their seatbelts and put their tray tables up, everyone complied except for the woman. She started muttering again and rolled her eyes at the flight attendant who approached her and asked her to do what she was told.

As the plane took off, the woman started hitting the button uncontrollably, calling for the flight attendant.

“Yes, ma’am? What can I do for you?” the flight attendant asked.

The woman started yelling. “I hate this seat. How can I seat between these two huge people. Look at them!”

At that point, everyone could hear her words. To make things worse, people started staring.

“I need more room, right now. Look at this man’s legs, they are huge,” she continued sreaming.

The flight attendant told her there were no other seats available, but the woman pushed her and started going up and down the plane.

“I bought this seat. I can’t just sit here for eight hours all cramped up like a sardine.”

She spent the rest of the flight sighing, shifting in her seat, and nudging Logan as though the armrest belonged to her only.

At one point, she turned to Logan and yelled, “You should’ve booked a seat with more legroom. Why should you burden others?”

The yelling continued until the end of the flight, and the moment the pilot announced the landing will take place in 20 minutes, she unbuckled her seatbelt and got to her feet, searching through the overhead bin.

The flight attendant approached her and asked her to sit until they touched down, but the woman refused.

This forced the flight attendant to reach out for assistance from a fellow colleague.

It was then that the captain started speaking through the intercom. “Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We’re just about to touch down at JFK. Please stay seated and keep your seatbelts fastened at all times. Thank you.”

When the plane finally landed and everyone taxied to the gate, the woman ignored protocol, jumping up, grabbing her things, and nearly hitting Logan and the rest of the passengers. A flight attendant warned her, but she stepped into the aisle anyway — just as the captain emerged from the cockpit.

“Madam, please stay seated, you are making it hard for everyone.” Sadly, the woman wouldn’t listen to the captain either.

Eventually, the captain addressed the whole cabin, “Ladies and gentlemen, I want to express my gratitude for your patience during this flight. I’d like to take a moment to recognize someone who has truly made their mark in our midst. Let’s all give a big round of applause to the passenger in seat 29C—who decided to ignore the crew’s instructions and add a little extra thrill to our journey!”

Everyone started laughing, and the woman felt embarrassed, but it was something she deserved for her behavior.
