    His handle (@bubblebathgirl) is interesting. I wonder if there is audio/video footage after he gets off the plane. His story sounds sincere.

      Doesn't it seems kind of coincidental that this totally uncalled for action happened to somebody who is quite so outspoken on Twitter?

      I was only joking

          The attendant should be canned immediately.

            @Mik said in "You were disturbing the flight.":

            The attendant should be canned immediately.

            They need to determine what actually happened first. If what he says is true, they should definitely be fired.

              Whoever cancelled his flight without telling him should be canned immediately.

                "As New York’s Hometown Airline, we are proud of our long history welcoming customers of different backgrounds and faiths from around the world. JetBlue does not tolerate discriminatory conduct, and we are committed to providing a respectful and welcoming environment for all our customers and crewmembers. We are taking this matter very seriously and conducting a full investigation into our crewmembers’ actions. We will take appropriate action once our investigation is complete as a result of non-compliance with any JetBlue policies.

                At JetBlue, our #1 value is safety, and it guides every decision JetBlue makes. Our crewmembers should be focused on the safety of our flights and delivering a great customer experience. We have changed our uniform policy to make clear that on board the aircraft is not the right place for crewmembers to advocate positions on certain issues or political topics. Going forward crewmembers will only be permitted to wear pins approved or issued by JetBlue.

                We had previously identified that our pin policy, which had dated back many years and allowed crewmembers to wear one unoffensive personal pin of their choice, needed to be updated to reflect the current environment. In light of this incident, we urgently expedited this change.

                We have reached out to listen to Mr. Faust and offer our apologies for the breakdown in our policies during his flight. We hope with these actions we can welcome him back onto a JetBlue flight in the future."

                "ONE unoffensive pin..." The attendant was in violation of that policy if what Faust relates was true.

                The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                  Yeah, yeah, that's all well and good but I would fire someone who did not have the good sense not to wear those pins even in the absence of a policy.

                    @George-K

                    Sounds like that at Jet Blue their motto should be:

                    We’re not happy until you’re unhappy

                    Elbows up!

                      I wouldn’t take it out on JetBlue just yet. Half their business is ferrying Jews between NY and South Florida I’m sure they’ll do a proper investigation.

                      Banning passengers (hence canceling their flights) that disrupt flights is a sound policy. The issue here, assuming his version is reasonably accurate, is that one or two flight attendants abused that policy with or without the pilot being complicit.

                      They’ll end up, after a lot of drama, with the same formula they use every time they have a trifecta: take away health care and food assistance from low income families and use the money to fund tax cuts for their donors.
