Flight canceled after flight attendants brawl | ajc.com

Quote:
A Delta Connection flight from Rochester, N.Y., to Atlanta was canceled after an altercation between two flight attendants.

According the news Web site YNN Rochester, the flight was operated by Pinnacle Airlines.

YNN quoted a passenger, Steve Mazur, who said the two female attendants "got into a fistfight on the plane. The pilot decided to kick everyone off the plane.”
“They told us we had to get off the plane because stewardesses were fighting,” another passenger, Corey Minton, told the Web site.

Tsk tsk tsk.

This is almost as good as the naked 9E FO and FA found in the woods at MDT a while back.

Maybe the FAA will allow airlines to eliminate FA's entirely and just put vending machines in the galley. I bet the majority of FA's would be borderline-useless in an emergency, anyway. Less drama for us, for the company, and fewer people trying to change the world with their PA's.

There are some good FA's out there, but as far as I am concerned, they could be blow-up dolls - inflate them for the flight and then pop the valve, tuck under your arm, deflate, and stuff in your bag.

What about the 9E 900 that diverted from Austin or something to Houston and didn't call the ops at the airport to let anyone know they were coming. They just land and show up at the gate. The agents were at the gate and saw a Delta painted 900 land and thought to themselves, who the hell is that..." I was told the diversion was for a rediculous reason too. The station was forced to bus all of the passangers to their destination on their coin. That is supposed to land directly on RA's desk.

And the 900 that scraped a wingtip in OKC.

lol. Do you even work in the airline industry? This has to be the most incoherent posts I have ever read. The station was forced to bus all of the passengers on their own coin? Diverted for ridiculous reason? Pretending to be a pilot isn't as fun as it used to be. Please stop.

Compass FA's just try to set the plane on fire.

From what I have heard this isn't the first time they have had flight attendants get into it on the 900. You would think that fancy music Delta plays while your boarding would calm the passengers and the crazy flight attendants.

I bet that you're lots of fun to fly with!

There are far more pilots that like to hear themselves speak on the PA than FA's.
