FA lied to captain (claims I directed obscene language at him)
sitting in first. Bulkhead aisle and was first to deplane. FA who had been rude all flight rudely again told me to “step back” I told him it wouldn’t hurt to say please and he said he did. I politely but firmly said no you didn’t and after going back and forth asked for his name. When he refuses to give it I asked to speak to the pilot. He went into the cockpit and said “this man just told me to jump off the jet bridge and suck my d—-“. which I most certainly did not.
The captain stepped out out and asked what the problem was. I explained exactly what I posted above and he asked me to step out onto the jet bridge to wait for him. I’m now waiting on the jet bridge. Never in my life have I ever experienced anything like this. Many suggestions beyond speaking to the captain? |

Is is it possible to ask other deplaning passengers that were within earshot of your side to collaborate it? |
I'm not doubting your story at all, but if what you say actually played out (just unbelievable), you must have realised that this was escalating quickly. Why pick a fight when none is necessary?

“Ground security supervisor” came into jet bridge and took a formal complaint. Said he would file complaint on my behalf and advised me how I could also do so online.
Turns out female FA heard everything. After I finished speaking to the “ground security supervisor” I was walking out and she apologized to me. Not sure if she’ll corroborate on record or not but makes me feel a little better. Will definitely file a formal complaint. Still in shock. |

Calm down Back down Apologize I hope OP started recording once on the jetway. I wonder what would happen if you refused to board a future flight with the same FA? I doubt his lying will have stopped but you get on record as having an issue there. |

For his part in escalating, but not for saying something he didn't say, right? If the captain asks "did you say that?" you don't expect him to say "yes, and I'm very sorry"?
better to handle it after the fact that get into a he said -she said and potentially get booted off the airplane (independent of who was in the right and wrong). to the OP - sucks this happened. Definitely file a complaint with as much pertinent details as possible. |
