The incident was caught on video – it was posted on Twitter – and shows the agent speaking to the woman. According to the Dallas Morning News, the incident occurred July 17 on a flight from DFW to Miami when an attendant spoke to the passenger about her mask. The video was captured by another passenger, Christopher Freeman, as the plane was being reboarded after the woman had been removed from the flight. Unfortunately, it has been a common occurrence for flight attendants and gate agents to have to deal with unruly passengers, especially over mask disputes during the Covid-19 pandemic. So far this year the FAA has investigated 3,509 unruly passenger reports and 2,605 mask-related incidents.
