>I asked this before, and I ask it again. If I board a plane, move to some other seat, and refuse to return to my assigned seat when told to do so by the crew, I would be ejected from the plane, and rightfully so. So; why not them? What quality makes them immune from following the same rules and with the same ramifications of refusing to follow them that the rest of us do not share?
Provided that this really happened. If they were asked politely and responded rude - Then YES they should be removed from the plane just like EVERBODY ELSE. Only one who changed seat was chief of that excursion, who moved to 1st class seat because he was entitled to it as frequent flier (!?!) with AA
All I am standing for is for them to be treated like everybody else. But
what happened there points to the opposite.
