jacko45k Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 If she acts like this she should be banned from flying from all airlines for life. So much compassion for the mentally ill, lol. I think a little compassion for the many passengers she endangers is required too. Many are refused boarding due to alcohol as a safety measure.

BSJ Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 She's got a haircut like Moe from the 3 Stooges. Ah, at last, a post that gets to the heart of the matter! Why was she the only stooge on the plane? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soutpeel Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Things like this always make me very sad. I feel very sorry for that woman and for anyone that is diagnosed as insane, paranoid, etc... Must be terrible if you are trapped in your own paranoid world, while people on the outside can't understand what is going on with you or inside your head. Hhhhmm, thinking about it - sounds like a perfect description of a politician, doesn't it? Sounds like a perfect description of a lot of TV members Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairynuff Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Surely an agitated person is detectable prior to boarding. I, for one, spend my waiting time just looking at the body language of the passengers, in the departure lounge, just looking for something out of the ordinary. Paranoid, probably yes! Definitely yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairynuff Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 The cabin staff give me no confidence in being able to handle a REAL EMERGENCY when the video shows some of them turning their backs on this woman. If the plane was still at Don Mueang then she should have been offloaded, but this would have been inconvenient for the airline. If it was in flight she should have been escorted to her seat and "Cabled Tied" to it. I think I would have requested I be disembarked the plane if I was a passenger on this flight. Perfect way to inflame a situation and create a REAL EMERGENCY. I'm glad you're not cabin crew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The post (by lee said 'should be banned' I admit I should modify my post to say 'might endanger'. Let us pre-empt any issues, unless you suggest we give her a job as a pilot. Tut-tut. It wasn't an airline hiring interview. YOU (not lee, to whose post I was NOT referring) said, "compassion for the many passengers she endangers is required too.". So I'll ask again and let us pre-empt the smileys & the bloviating this time. Please just answer the question (if you can): how exactly did she actually "endanger" anybody? While she may have annoyed, or at most alarmed, some of the other passengers, I fail to see how she "endangered" any of them. Though about all you can see is the backs of heads, the video certainly doesn't show any signs of passengers doing anything but watching the goings-on, which is exactly how I imagine most would react to something like this. Nothing more. It looked like the episode was an attention-grabber, but not really that big a deal. Why are some trying to make a life-or-death case out of it?

When the "incident" actually endangers someone (your word, not mine), THEN you can get back to me... And if they endangered their fellow passengers, then guess what? I'll be agreeing with you that they posed a danger to their fellow passengers. I'm really wondering what the point is that you're trying to make. BTW - so NOW your problem isn't with whether or not she actually "endangered" anyone. It's with all people with "mental issues". So just exactly how would you go about, and how should airlines go about, screening all passengers for "mental issues"? I know I'd just love to hear your definition of what constitutes a "mental issue". Must we all get certificates from psychiatrists now to be able to fly? Maybe you'd like to set up a brand new global government agency to handle it - everyone would have to "register" with them. Yeah - what a concept, eh? No, I have it! Let's set up a panel consisting of TV members to evaluate everyone who wants to fly. But you're quite right about one thing; the incident described here in this thread was hardly significant - tabloid journalism in fact. Just a cue for drama queens, and an invitation to take a nice satisfying swipe at people with "mental issues" (whatever that means).

sirineou Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 How does one randomly stand up? Toss a coin to decide to stand up or not? So low tech, so yesterday I guess you must not be familiar with the random stand-up generators installed in all Air Asia seats. When it goes of, anyone sitting in that seat has to stand up an be irrational. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geriatrickid Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 She and her family were escorted off the plane. So why did her family not intervene and get her to sit down? Just do the Thai thing and blank something unpleasant, like a five-year old would? Maybe the family had previous experience with her where their intervention made things worse. These things are difficult to judge when one doesn't know the history of the people involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gandtee Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 some one stands up on a plane a shouts ""Stop flying! Do I have to look up the law? Everyone, get out! You will find out why!" and the flight is not cancelled and a bomb squad does not go over ever inch of the plane? in the states she would have been tackled and handcuffed so fast it would make your head spin. many times people are stopped from trying to open the door while inflight. good thing they were on the ground. But then not all countries are paranoid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
