Suit yourself. When you're dead after the plane has crashed or flown into a building, I'll be on the next flight out reaching my final destination safely, knowing I'll have a family to return to.
This was absolutely a dangerous situation, and one I would not have tolerated. I've been present to see GA's not allow pax like this onto planes before. I've also, along with a number of other EXP's, made calls to the desk to make sure that we were either accommodated on another flight or made sure that a pax like this was not allowed on an airplane. (Late last year at OKC was a good example...CRJ7). There's just too much at stake. Are YOU willing to risk it?
