I recently read an article about the singer Billie Joe Armstrong getting kicked off a flight because his pants were to low. I found this article to be a complete joke its not like the singers rear could be seen. But that is what the airline made it seem like. Bille had made a comment saying " if there weren't better things to do than worry about his jeans". I agree with him 100% because the incidents that happens on planes in the recent years flight attendants should worry about the safety of the fliers.
Another thing that i questioned was why was the attendant looking at his rear. His pants weren't and never gonna be a problem until the attendant made it one. No one probably didn't even care that his pants were a sagged a little bit too low. Recently after the incident billie tweeted this "Just got kicked off a southwest flight because my pants sagged too low! What the (expletive)? No joke!". I find it funny what gets people in trouble these days
Airlines have so many different security threats to deal with every day, this is an absolute joke. Not only will forcing someone off a plane look bad for Southwest's business, but the more flights are delayed for idiocies like this,the more frustrated the passenegers become. After reading this, I asked myself: Why are airlines able to scan people's bodies (seeing the person naked), but visible underwear is grounds for ejection?
ReplyDeleteIm gonna have to side with you on this brandon. I could not find a single way that Billie Joe's pants could possibly be considered a flight hazzard. Southwest had no right in kicking him off the flight. I find it as just another reason for airlines to give people a hard time. But as always we will have to listen to them.

For sagging pants? Really?! -_- ...Billie being denied access to the flight is flat out stupid. The airport security should've been more focused on maybe the suspicious looking dude in a trench bulky coat. What threat is posed by lower pants? He wasn't indecently exposed so he was not violating any laws. Maybe Southwest should post a dresscode at one of the checkpoints. I smell a possible lawsuit xD
