The two had been involved in an intimate relationship since November, according to a probable cause statement, but things went sour when Sporer saw something she didn’t like on Thomas' cellphone.

"They both agreed to break up so Thomas went onto the plane and sat in the cock-pit and Sporer went to the gate," according to a probable cause affidavit. "Sporer became angry and went onto the plane to confront Thomas. Sporer grabbed Thomas by the neck tie and slapped him in the face with an open hand three times. Thomas retaliated by grabbing Sporer and striking her in the ribs with a closed fist."

‘Drunk’ plane passenger vomits in woman’s hair on US flight – forcing cabin crew to clean her up in the sink

https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/101050...it-flight-usa/

A DRUNK plane passenger was escorted off the aircraft after throwing up on a woman's head, forcing cabin crew to clean her up in the sink.

The ordeal prompted cabin crew to make passengers deplane so that the aircraft could be deep cleaned before it set off to Baltimore from Chicago.



One passenger managed to film the aftermath of disgusting incident which left the woman's hair covered in the man's vomit.

The passenger who shared the video to ABC7 News said the woman was forced to clean the vomit out of her hair in a sink.

The video shows a member of the Spirit Airlines cabin crew wipe the woman’s hair with a tissue in efforts to clean it from the vomit.

The co-pilot is then heard making an announcement to passengers, jokingly saying that he’s surprised this is not a flight to Las Vegas, saying: “This stuff only happens on my Vegas flights, never happens in Chicago.

“If anybody else is drunk, please get off the airplane now.”

A new era of airline loyalty programs has arrived. United Airlines announced this week that the criteria for elite qualification in its MileagePlus loyalty program would change dramatically next year. Starting in January of 2020, United’s loyalty members will earn elite status based on Premier Qualifying Flights and Premier Qualifying Segments only. Flight miles, the traditional metric by which frequent flyers used to earn status, are no longer going to be considered.
It wasn’t too long ago that frequent flyers on American, Delta, and United earned elite status based solely on how far they fly. If a passenger flew 100,000 miles or 100 segments on any of the carriers, for example, top-tier (published) status was awarded, yielding perks such as upgrades, free checked bags, and free seat assignments.
In 2013, however, that formula changed when Delta introduced qualifying dollars to its equation for calculating for elite status. From that point forward, frequent flyers needed to earn a baseline number of miles or segments and also spend a companion amount of cash — up to $15,000 for the top published tier — to earn the same status as before. American and United quickly followed suit leaving only Alaska with its legacy earning structure.
Now United is taking the mileage out of the equation. MileagePlus members next year will earn status based on both Premier Qualifying Points (PQPs) or Premier Qualifying Flights (PQFs) along with PQPs. Premier Qualifying Points, which are effectively the same as Premier Qualifying Dollars in the current MileagePlus economy, are earned on a 1:1 basis as a function of how much is spent on a ticket (exclusive of taxes).

Pilots union officials at two of the largest U.S. airline operators of the 737 Max, American and Southwest Airlines, reacted with dismay.

“This more evidence that Boeing misled pilots, government regulators and other aviation experts about the safety of the 737 Max," said Jon Weaks, president of Southwest Airlines Pilots Association, in a statement. "It is clear that the company’s negligence and fraud put the flying public at risk."

And Dennis Tajer, spokesman for the Allied Pilots Association for American, said "it's very serious if Boeing had someone within who is describing something egregious." He added, "We want to know under what conditions (MCAS was malfunctioning) so we can determine if something is new within the MCAS system."

He also said the union is solidly behind the FAA's Dickson on the matter. "We count on the FAA as a safety-culture partner."

At least this guy will actually be charged with something substantial. Then again, I wouldn’t be surprised if using the wrong bathroom on the plane carries a stiffer penalty.

Dis-united has been $#@!ing me out of Gold status ever since they took over Continental.

This is just another way to do it.

Premier access and upgrades are the only reason I keep using the $#@!ers.

That and maybe some day @Danke will be my pilot.

Delta Airlines agrees to offer un-edited gay sex films on its flights

https://libertyunyielding.com/2019/1...n-its-flights/

Delta Airlines agrees to offer un-edited gay sex films on its flights

Delta Airlines has been in the headlines before but certainly not in the sorts of stories the airline’s PR department had anything to do with. In February, the airline added its name to a list of companies “declaring war” on the National Rifle Association. In Delta’s case, this entailed ending discounts to fliers affiliated with the group, an action that resulted in the company’s loss of a $40 million tax break.

Now the airlines is back in the news. This time, the story is that airline has caved to heat from the LGBTQ community over its policy of running edited versions of movies with gay sex scenes.

In a statement, the airline said:

We value our in-flight entertainment options as a means to reflect the diversity of the world. We are reviewing the processes of our third-party editing vendors to ensure that they are aligned with our values of diversity and inclusion.

“In other words,” writes CNSNews, “Delta Air Lines is now going to make sure that it offers films with gay sex and related images, scenes, and themes for passengers traveling on its airplanes.”

A spokesman for Delta told Fox News that the company is “immediately putting a new process in place for managing content available through Delta’s entertainment. … The studio has agreed to provide a special Delta edit that retains the LGBTQ+ love scenes in both ‘Booksmart’ and ‘Rocketman’ that will be on our flights as soon as possible.”

“Booksmart,” for those of you not up on your teenage coming-of-age films, includes lesbian sexuality and masturbation. I suspect that even with judicious cutting, these scenes are plenty salacious, what with the moaning and other suggestive cues.

And what about likely complaints from parents and other passengers flying with small children? Delta hasn’t clarified, though I’m pretty sure that in this era in which 8-year-olds are learning in school about anal sex and fisting, Delta probably has its aft covered.

Airlines tell parents to pay up or risk sitting rows away from their kids

[Swordsmyth]

United Airlines said Tuesday it had ordered 50 Airbus A321XLR aircraft, worth an estimated $6.5 billion, to replace an existing fleet of aging Boeings.The new Airbus planes, to be delivered starting 2024, will allow United to retire its Boeing 757-200s, the company said.
The Airbus order is the latest blow to the American manufacturer, already deeply mired in the crisis surrounding its 737 MAX, which has been grounded worldwide after two crashes that resulted in 346 deaths.
Boeing has no new aircraft to compete with the Airbus A321XLR in the mid-market range.
Airbus launched the A321XLR only this year, at the Paris Air Show in June.
The single-aisle aircraft's range is 15 percent above that of its predecessor, the A321LR, making it a cost-effective alternative to long-haul wide-body planes.
It's larger fuel tanks allow it to cover up to 5,400 miles (8,700 kilometers) in nine hours -- significantly more than the Boeing 737 MAX.
United said it intends to use the new aircraft to serve additional European destinations from US East Coast hubs in Newark/New York and Washington.
- Gap in Boeing products -
The airline turned to Airbus for the purchase because Boeing does not have an aircraft in the mid-market range, a source close to the matter told AFP on condition of anonymity.
"There are no aircraft currently offered by Boeing that can replace the 757," the source said, adding that negotiations between Airbus and United began several months ago.
Boeing, which is currently focused on returning its MAX aircraft to the sky, has already postponed until next year the possible announcement of a new model aircraft (NMA) intended to replace the 757 and 767.
The manufacturer recently presented the design to various airlines, including United, industrial sources told AFP.
Boeing still aims to have the NMA enter service in 2025, the sources said.
"We will take a close look at this aircraft," said Andrew Nocella, United chief commercial officer, during a call with reporters.
He added that United has not ruled out the possibility of buying the NMA should Boeing build it.
