My first disruptive flight
Made it all Covid w out any incidents at all.. I think this was the FA’s fault thought. Never seen anything like it but Captain was out , cart was blocking the galley and a man came up to use the lav. Being in row 1 I had perfect ears on this…. She told him go sit down! Go sit down now! Now the voice is getting louder.. Get back to your seat immediately and sit down and fasten your seat belt. She was yelling folks. And he said “why are you screaming at me?” She said some snide comment about putting him on a report list or something if he didn’t go sit down. And he did. There was no announcement the captain was using the lab nor was the seat belt sign on.
What happened next was near terrifying. Same FA makes an announcement for everyone to sit down and fasten seat belts. Like aggressively. Repeatedly! And those of us upfront having seen her treat the man so bad and now start going crazy on the speaker were quite alarmed. Lady next to me genuinely thought something was wrong w the plane.
Once we landed she got up from her seat and told the lady next to me “get off your phone now you can’t be on it yet”. I have never seen this. We were maybe 200 feet from the gate. And finally she then goes on the speaker and announces phones must be in airplane mode until you are out of customs… She said it’s an international flight and the rules are that phones must be off until you are out of customs or you can get in trouble! She then got up again and told 1C she will write her up if the phone isn’t off immediately.
What was a little troublesome is she wasn’t the type who knew she was being a bit crazy. I really sensed she believed her actions were completely normal.
