Flight Attendant on U.S. Airways Insults Army Ranger

[DavenRoxy 1,073]

This could have gone much better for the airline...

Passengers onboard a recent U.S. Airways flight from Portland, Oregon to Charlotte, North Carolina were shocked and angry after a flight attendant mistreated an Army Ranger who was wearing a chest full of medals.

Passengers told Channel 9 that First Sergeant Albert Marle asked a flight attendant if he could hang up his uniform jacket to keep it from getting wrinkled. The flight attendant, in a harsh tone, said the service is available only to first class passengers and refused to let other passengers (who volunteered) switch seats with him:

The flight attendant most likely based in anti-military and liberal Portland, Oregon.

Very ghey

Maybe congress should pass a law that anyone wearing a uniform flys for free and anyone in first class not wearing a uniform should get bumped back to coach to make room for those in uniform.

Somebody on the plane should of Throat Punched the Flight Attendant......

The first refusal, although not great PR, is understandable.

To follow up by refusing to allow willing volunteers to swap seats with the Marine is unacceptable.

Let's be clear about this, he wasn't a Marine.

Bad move. He should have put away the coat as a courtesy for the ranger. Simple commonsense.

Contrary to popular and unadvised belief, it is against federal regulations to change seats across cabins once on board, so the notion that someone in first class should have changed seats with him, however well intended, would have been a breach in security.

It's US Air. Chances are the flight attendant is one of those who believe anyone in uniform is working for 0'bama 0'bola secretly. Never underestimate the power of ODS.

She had to be really dense then, it is common knowledge that Obola isn't on many military member's Fav5 list!

Neither are USAF.

What better disguise, then?

[JohnR! 5,495]

Denser than a neutron star... which might indicate a severe case of ODS...

Most sites carrying this story say he declined the offer to switch seats himself. Seems not to be so much about following policy, which most people can understand, as it is about the flight attendants indignant attitude.

He has been wearing the uniform on job interviews across the country while pursuing his dream to become a doctor, his family told Channel 9.
