Delta Pilot involved in jetway fight
 
In an ATL jetway.

Guy should be embarassed. First off, that is not how you break up a fight. Second you are on tape hitting a woman. Lastly there are cameras out everywhere.

This is absolutely stupid on the part of this pilot. He wasn't even involved for starters.

I wonder if said passengers were on our "basic economy" fare. Aka the fare class we have set aside to steal customers from Spirit. Too soon?

Maybe the brand won't be tarnished because he had his hat on, at least he looked professional while he was acting stupidly.

If only the article told the bigger story....the trash of our society who can't act mature and civil in public, do what they do, and fight like children. Bystander steps in to break the strangle hold that one of said trash had on other trash.

Word is the pilot was removed from duty but then reinstated after a brief investigation. The women chose not to press charges against anyone. That's a good move because their behavior caused all of this.

Good to hear for him. Be smart out there, on a 100+ pax plane about 98% of the pax have a camera ready at all times.

Maybe it is time for us to remove our basic economy fare from the menu.

So did Dr. Dal's.

Too bad it didn't work out the same way.

Perhaps a bucket of water should be kept hanging on the jet way in case of fire or uncontrollable emotions.

The title of this thread is incorrect!

That said, I guess we as crew members are damned if you do...and damned if you don't.

I swear, this ridiculous behavior on the part of the passengers lately is worse than how pre-schoolers behave. Jesus...

Sorry, I simply used the title that is in the link. I agree with all of your points. It is ludacris behavior by the general public.
