A woman from Hawaii has been ordered to pay nearly $39,000 in restitution to American Airlines for interfering with a crew on a flight last year, according to authorities.
Federal prosecutors said Tuesday that 29-year-old Cayla Farris was sentenced to more than three months of time served in connection with her actions plus three years of supervised probation.
A U.S. District judge said Farris will have to obtain approval before boarding an aircraft while she’s on probation.
According to authorities, Farris was on a Feb. 13, 2022, flight from Phoenix to Honolulu when she began using profanity and threatened the flight crew and other passengers.
More of this. And more use of the No Fly list. It’s enough of a P.I.T.A. to fly without someone being a jerk. Everyone should act like they’re in a library.
Yup. Every single passenger, except for babies and small children (they’ll obviously always act out, and we just have to suck that up), should be required to be on their best behavior, somehow. I like the idea of pretending you’re in a library. Someone should hang up those Shhh! signs everywhere. Maybe a passenger rating system or something, like two strikes making a scene and you’re banned for 5 years? Dunno, there’s gotta be a way.
So many travelers get incredibly frustrated and worked up by standard crap that just normally happens when you try to organize thousands of people doing one thing in a shared space. Justified frustration much of the time, because the service sucks more often than not, but taking that frustration out on underpaid staff is never okay, and should be punished with real consequences.
Article doesn’t say, but I’m going to guess… Alcohol?
Probably wan’t stoned at the very least.
You’re at a ball game or a concert, and someone’s really violent and aggressive and obnoxious, are they drunk or are they smoking pot? (gasp) We all know the difference.”

Why is she not automatically on the no fly list for like 20 years?
