Air Canada flight canceled after flight attendant goes berserk when passenger asks for blanket: video
A Montreal-bound Air Canada flight from Morocco was canceled after a flight attendant was caught on camera ranting and raving at a passenger who had reportedly requested a blanket.
Video of the incident aboard Friday’s Flight AC73 from Casablanca shows the enraged female flight attendant gesturing angrily while yelling at an unseen passenger in both English and French.
“You will behave or we will get off!” the flight crew member bellows in now-viral footage captured by another passenger. “I don’t want no bullying against my crew!”
She ignored a request to get the captain and was filmed storming up the aisle before turning around and shouting, “Everyone behave! Be quiet … or you’re getting off.”
The meltdown was instigated by a passenger asking for a blanket, CTV News reported.
Air Canada confirmed that the flight was canceled, with a different crew brought in to take the passengers to their destination on Sunday. Passengers would also be offered compensation for both the delay and the unsettling incident, the airline told CTV News.
“We are taking this incident very seriously,” spokesperson Christophe Hennebell said.
“It is under review, and we will take appropriate action. We apologize to our customers and deeply regret that their experience today fell far short of what they have come to expect when flying with Air Canada.”
