Sure they did...


quote:

A black woman has accused Delta Air Lines of discrimination after a flight attendant allegedly asked her to move to the back of a plane to make room for two white women.
quote:

Camille Henderson said she was sitting near row 15 window during a Feb. 3 flight from Atlanta to San Francisco when the women, who were sitting in the aisle and middle seats in the row next to her, said they had first-class tickets, ABC 7 reported.
quote:

Henderson, who said the crew did not ask the women to move, agreed reluctantly to go to the back row,
quote:

“I don’t want to make it a race thing, but instead of asking the two white women that were seated next to me (to move), in an attempt to accommodate them, they basically made me have to move,”
quote:

“I just don’t know why I had to move because that was the seat that I paid for, that was my assigned seat,” she added. “As I’m walking back there it’s just humiliating. It’s like having the entire flight look at you and asking what’s going on.”
quote:

“Me, as a black woman, I was displaced to make two white women comfortable. That doesn’t make any sense to me,”

Maybe she was one of a handful flying alone?

And honestly, if I had been on that flight I'd have been more worried about getting myself settled than "what was going on" unless there was a scene being made.

People need to just stop.

I automatically think every racism claim is fabricated bullshite these days.

Sad too, because I know there are cases where it truly happens and should be vilified.

Please let there be cellphone video from another passenger shows her being politely asked to occupy another seat in order to allow two passengers traveling together to sit beside each other, and her going full ghetto queen-victim on the flight attendant in response.

They felt like they were ticketed first-class seats, but they couldn’t provide the tickets,” Henderson told the news outlet, adding that the women continued the complaints for over an hour. Henderson recorded part of the exchange between the women and a flight attendant.


So the 2 white women claimed they had first class seats, couldn’t find their tickets, bitched about it to the flight attendant for an hour…

They just scan their boarding pass at the gate to get on.. so of course they’ll claim
They don’t have their ticket then 60 feet away on the plane .

“Unfortunately, my first-class seats are occupied,” one women is heard saying, according to a recording obtained by ABC 7.”

I would’ve gladly went to the back of the plane to get away from that nonsense

If the women had first class tickets and there weren’t first class spots, I’m sure the airline would accommodate them as best as possible.

A single traveler, especially if they didn’t pay full freight, would get bumped.

Delta is so absolutely cucked that they will bend over backwards crying and apologizing to try to appease the social justice gods over this.

Check her boarding pass: probably Group E

Perhaps she would be more comfortable on Spirit Airlines
