Flier reportedly freaks after other passenger nabs cushy premium seat

2/1/2013

A woman flying on a JetBlue plane from New York City to San Diego made exactly zero friends when she reportedly went berserk over a fellow passenger's free upgrade. It started when another flier's TV didn't work, so accommodating flight attendants reassigned him to the seat next to hers — in the premium section. Other passengers said that the 42-year-old woman freaked, perturbed that she'd paid extra for the spacious seat and he hadn't. When things got physical between the kindergartner (sorry, the alleged instigator) and a flight attendant, an Air Marshal intervened, the flight was diverted to Denver and she was taken away. The well-behaved passengers continued on to their final destination. [Source]
