There's a contract for passage between A and B, even if one party was in breach. If AA doesn't want to fulfill on that contract or reimburse the counterparty, they may end up paying more to defend themselves by asserting breach by counterparty than it costs to reimburse the counterparty.
Like others have stated, only one of us knows what really happened, and there could be somewhat, yet unlikely circumstances that led to the FAs actions.
There was no breach of contract, as the px made it from point A to B. There is also no denying that cursing in VA is in fact a misdemeanor. Going to court, and not denying the admitted infraction was committed; however stupid it is, would not be recommended, as you would only be waiting your own time and money.
The OP, and I would do the same in his shoes, should state his case to Customer Relations and he will be more likely to receive compensation than pursuing the legal route.
