In a statement, Vueling said some passengers "engaged in highly disruptive behaviour and adopted a very confrontational attitude, putting at risk the safe conduct" of the flight to Paris-Orly airport. "We categorically deny any suggestion that our crew's decision related to the religion of the passengers involved. This decision was taken solely to ensure the safety of all passengers," it said. "This group mishandled emergency equipment and actively disrupted the mandatory safety demonstration, repeatedly ignoring instructions from cabin crew," Vueling added. Sorry, but if you're going to tamper with safety equipment on a plane and put staff and passengers at risk, then you're gonna rightly get booted off. I don't care what religion you follow, the Captain of an aircraft has every right to remove people from a place if they decide that they pose a risk This sounds very much like a case of playing the race/religion card to try and excuse your ****ty behaviour.
I still remember that video posted on here of a GHF spokesman talking to the camera and saying that these distribution sites were safe and that all the reports of civilians being fired upon were false, just as you heard a ton of gunfire in the background. Over 1000 people killed at these sites since May Multiple reports of GHF and IDF shooting people in the crowd and tanks unloading shells into crowds of people queuing for food. And the IDF response, is either 'it's not happening' or 'Hamas are doing it'....
I've been trying to think what safety equipment kids could mishandle on an airplane, surely the answer to that should be none for children? If they were mostly 15 as one of the reports suggest, then that is legally a minor. During demonstrations, there would be seat belts included, they would therefore have to handle their seatbelt. Emergency exit seats are completely at the discretion of the crew and your ability. Face masks wouldn't come down in a demo, so that only leaves your lifebelt which is pretty ****ing useless in a plane crash...no evidence or suggestions they were pulled out. It seems to me they got offloaded for being boisterous, pretty much like any group of kids on a plane. Considering everyone has mobile videos of everything these days, I'm surprised other passangers haven't come forward with any, other than the teacher being manhandled on the ground by Spanish police.
They obviously thought they were presenting a risk to have them removed from a flight. Apparently there were 44 of them, so that's a significant amount of rowdy people, even if they were only 15. Apparently they got even more abusive and threatening when they were told to calm down. So I can see why the airline decided to kick them off. People get booted off of planes for aggressive or intimidating behaviour all the time. Or they get restrained mid flight and then arrested when the plane lands. If I'm on a plane and some **** kicks off, I'd want the same thing to happen too. Especially if they start getting abusive and intimidating to the cabin crew. Who knows what they might do once airborne if they haven't been dealt with and removed on the ground.
You highlighted they were a risk due to tampering with safety equipment, have the goal posts been moved now? Quote: 'Sorry, but if you're going to tamper with safety equipment on a plane and put staff and passengers at risk, then you're gonna rightly get booted off.'
So what safety equipement did they say was tampered with? What could a child possibly tamper with from their seat, push the call button maybe lol, turn the lights on and off.
I don’t think they did say. But when you board a flight, you do so with the understanding that if you are abusive, aggressive and the crew feel that you present a risk to the safety of the flight, then you’re either gonna get removed from the aircraft or restrained during flight and then arrested at the other end.
There is no evidence of anything they did, other than words on the internet. Do you not think it's a tad odd there has been no mobile phone footage of all this happening, I find it a tad strange or even media outlets with photos from passengers. I've seen plenty of photos and claims about the pilot lol....but I'm not putting any of that **** up. The only what appears genuine footage I've seen shown repeatedly is this...different words and accounts, because everyone adds their own narratives, so ignore that bit...I'm just referring to the footage itself...
Yeah I would have thought there might be some more footage. Every ****er has got a mobile phone these days. Vueling obviously thought they were a risk and airlines don’t **** about if they think you’re potentially a risk, so they booted them off.
France have demanded an explantion, as I assume the kids were all French. Unilke as the Spanish Transport Minister is supposed to have claimed 'Israeli brats' - I have no evidence he did actually say that. Edit: to add link of France demanding an explanation... https://www.lemonde.fr/en/europe/ar...ers-were-removed-from-flight_6743750_143.html
