10 offensive reasons for dropping people off planes

There are a variety of reasons why you could be kicked off a plane: if you start a fight, manage to bring a weapon on board, or threaten a flight attendant - and that's just to name a few. What about the reasons that you can't do anything about and feel excruciatingly ashamed about? For example, your child can't stop crying, or you accidentally vomited on your neighbor next door? Does this give the airline the right to kick you off the flight?

Sometimes people end up overboard not because of their actions, but because the airline decided it would be “better for the safety of other passengers,” writes The Richest. And here are a few people, including famous people who had to leave the plane. And even those who came to the earth through their own fault still must have experienced that same painful shame. Even celebrities are not protected.

10. Gerard Depardieu urinated on the carpet

Sometimes celebrities really believe that they can do anything. For example, on board Air France in 2011, Gerard Depardieu drank a lot and wanted to go to the toilet, but the flight attendants asked him to wait for take-off. 15 minutes were too long, so the actor urinated right on the carpet in the plane. According to the crew, it took two hours to disinfect the cabin.

9. The woman “looked” sick

It can be difficult to tell whether a person is sick or not just by looking at them, but sometimes completely healthy people look like they have a couple of hours left to live. Are they contagious? This, again, is difficult to understand. Suzanne Hayes, 72, was flying to Orlando from Akron, Ohio, on Delta Airlines. The woman suffers from a neurological pathology that makes her skin look much whiter than usual, but it is not at all contagious. During a layover in Detroit, she tried to explain all this to the crew, but was told that if she did not leave the plane immediately, the flight attendants would call the police. The woman had to wait 90 minutes for the next flight to get to her son in Florida. She was compensated only $20.

8. The passenger “sang badly”

Everyone knows the song I Will Always Love You by Whitney Houston, which was actually written and first performed by Dolly Parton. Not every woman can sing like Whitney or Dolly, but one passenger on a flight from Los Angeles to New York tried and categorically refused to stop singing. The American Airlines team, who were warmly supported by other passengers, were forced to “ask” her off the plane. Believe it or not, this required an emergency landing in Kansas City!

7. The man got very drunk and soiled his food cart.

It’s better not to know what exactly he stained it with. Yes, many people are afraid of flying, so they drink a glass or two to relax. But there are also those who overdo it with alcohol, unable to stop. A certain Gerard B. Finneran was flying from Buenos Aires to New York and got so drunk that when one of the stewards refused him another portion of alcohol, the man pushed aside the flight attendants, trying to get to the alcohol. After which, and it is impossible to imagine, he took off his pants and emptied his bowels onto the cart with food and drinks. Having sobered up, he was so shocked that he did not even come to court in his own case.

6. Star has suffered from fetching

If you've heard about Jay and Silent Bob or watched Clerks, you know who Kevin Smith is. He played Silent Bob and is also a famous director. Several years have passed since these films were released, and most viewers remember this actor as overweight. Since then, he has lost more than 18 kilograms, but before that he was familiar firsthand with the problems associated with flying and the inconvenience of obese people. In 2010, Kevin bought two tickets on an American Airlines flight, both for himself, so he could sit in two seats. Arriving early, the artist discovered that only one seat was free. Kevin was kicked off the plane because of its size, although he generally fit in one seat.

5. The child was ... a child

There are few things more annoying on a plane than a crying baby, but the little one can't do anything about it. When a plane gains altitude, internal pressure creates severe pain in the ears of many people - some completely lose their hearing, while others suffer from headaches. The child does not understand what is happening to him and cannot express discomfort in any other way - so he cries and screams. Musician Sarah Blackwood, seven months pregnant with her two-year-old son, was kicked off a United Airlines flight from San Francisco to Vancouver when the baby began screaming before takeoff, despite other passengers disagreeing with the crew's decision.

4. The passenger had Tourette's syndrome

Michael Doyle knew about his problems, so he took documents with him so that people could understand what was happening to him. But it didn't matter—he wasn't even allowed to board the Jet-Blue flight to San Juan. Tourette's syndrome is a nervous system disorder associated with repetitive movements or unwanted sounds. Michael was aware of recent reports of airport bombing, so he tried to stop himself from saying the word “bomb” when boarding the plane. But, according to sources, he said this word more than 100 times, and was not allowed to fly away. The airline later apologized and gave the man tickets for another flight.

3. The man suffered due to his height

A man about two meters tall boarded a plane bound for Canada. The flight attendant accidentally tripped over his long legs extending into the aisle. Most likely, the passenger could not properly position his legs between his and the front seats - this place is too cramped for a person of normal height. He was told that he would still have to rest his feet on the front seat, which was impossible and made the man embarrassed, since it was in no way his fault.

2. Passenger smelled too bad

One of the passengers of the flight of the Canadian company was expelled from the aircraft because of the smell that emanated from him. Passengers complained about the smell of men, and those who sat nearby, felt too uncomfortable because of the strength of this fragrance. It is not known what exactly they said to the man, but those around him clearly did not want to fly next to him. The flight was briefly delayed, and the passenger was asked to leave the salon.

1. The passenger was in a low-fit jeans

One of the fashion trends for men these days is to wear trousers that sit well below the waist. Billie Joe Armstrong, lead singer of Green Day, is one of those men who wears his jeans too low. According to ABC News, Billy was about to fly Southwest Airlines to Burbank when a flight attendant asked him to pull up his pants. He became upset and refused, as a result of which he was forced to leave the plane. The airline put Billy on the next flight, but no one knows if he pulled his pants up in time for departure.
