A flight from Miami to Atlanta was delayed after a passenger refused to get off the phone before takeoff, officials say. Crew members and even passengers repeatedly tried getting the passenger to hang up while the plane was taxiing out. But instead of ending the call, the passenger "became disruptive," causing the aircraft to head back to the gate, where they were removed, a Delta spokesperson said.

🚨NEW: Southwest flight erupted in applause after an unhinged leftist woman, who claimed she worked for the Minnesota governor, was kicked off a flight in Miami over the weekend. According to witnesses, the woman was already furious because the airline allowed disabled passengers to board before her. Once on the plane, she began harassing another passenger who happened to be an immigrant. The confrontation reportedly went on for over 30 minutes before the airline finally removed her from the flight. She claimed she was from New York but worked with a progressive Minnesota organization, insisting she was being removed for that reason and alleging that most of the passengers were conservatives.

A pregnant passenger was asked to give up her seat before takeoff. She said no. The airline employee insisted she had to deplane because of her condition. Voices rose, tension built, and eventually she was removed from the flight. She later sued the airline. Does this sound like discrimination to you — or a safety call the airline had the right to make?

🚨 A Muslim man was arrested on Southwest Airlines after a prayer alarm went off on his phone. The Southwest Airlines flight from Nashville to Fort Lauderdale was diverted to Atlanta.

🚨 A flight from Nashville to Denver was delayed after a passenger was forcibly removed before takeoff. Witnesses say the woman appeared intoxicated and was already causing problems before boarding. Once inside the aircraft, her behavior escalated yelling, making threats, and creating panic among passengers. Flight attendants and security were forced to step in, ultimately dragging her off the plane before departure. Several passengers caught the shocking moment on camera, leaving social media divided: was the airline right to act so quickly, or did things escalate too far too fast? Would you feel safe flying after seeing this happen right before takeoff?
