A Delta Air Lines passenger was caught in a compromising position on a flight from New York JFK to Athens. A man seated in the row behind him tried calling over a flight attendant, but no one responded so he eventually got up and went to the galley to let a crewmember know what was going on. The crewmember promised “to alert the crew lead” but nothing was done, and the man continued “on and off for a few hours.”
The man who observed the commotion “captured video evidence of” the passenger, in his early 50’s, continue unabated. On his homecoming trip, he flew United coming home, Athens to Newark, and no business class passengers engaged in similar behavior.
United Airlines has trained flight attendants to stop passengers from watching inflight porn but that didn’t stop one business class passenger from ignoring a crewmember’s requests to turn it off. A flight attendant once shared on their Facebook feed a story about a passenger taking such a long time in the lavatory that another passenger expressed concern and eventually the crew started to suspect a medical emergency. After much knocking he came out, iPad in hand. He went in there to watch “a movie.” Sometimes it’s the flight attendant that’s watching porn.
Air Canada once warned pilots to stop leaving porn in the cockpit and Etihad pilots once wrote up their inflight wifi for being too slow to download porn.
