The CA said he went back to try to calm the situation when she said "this is the worst airline i have ever been on". He replied to her " Ma'am, if you would like, we can have you removed from the airplane". Glamor Shots himself was sitting right next to her, and he didnt say a word.
Apparently she changed her attitude and and flew to CVG after that. I wonder if the Vaj gave her one of his "you need to adjust your own attitude" speeches to calm her.
Attention everyone: this is absolutely NOT true!
The CA (myself) talked to Selvaggio on my way back from the lavatory, and indicated to him that we would be on our way soon. His wife never made any statements or had a major trantum as RU4692 says. The whole story is untrue, based on rumours and is slanderous.
Honestly, being a CA if this would have happened I would have no problem with removing an unruly passenger. No exceptions.
This is what happened when ALPA had to shutdown the webboards at Comair: false, untrue stories, people making up stuff.
RU4692, I am curious who you are by spreading these rumours around?
