Couple Kicked Off Plane for Ignoring In-Flight Safety Briefing

JP supports this action, the couple was in an exit row and antagonistically ignored and distracted the safety briefing.
You can ask to be re-seated, but that row comes with responsibilities, if you choose to sit there. A few seconds of chaos or inaction would likely mean more injuries and fatalities in a serious incident.
I fly somewhat often, but rarely get the exit row. I knok most of the O-T is either in business/first class or flying their own Gulfstream G650, so this is a non-issue. When I do have the window seat on an exit row, after the safety briefing, I typically tell the aisle person "if something happens, you hold 'em back and I'll get this door off".
Additional observations:
1) the person who described them as "wealthy looking" is a douche.
2) I need to start working "chuffed" into my vocabulary

Two people were reportedly ejected from a flight on Tuesday because they refused to take notice of the safety briefing before take-off. The couple were on board an Air New Zealand flight bound from Wellington to Auckland when they were asked to pay attention to the pre-flight safety announcement. The couple were in the exit row where passengers are given special instructions.
One passenger sitting nearby said that the couple were “wealthy looking” telling Stuff that the woman was blonde, had a Louis Vuitton bag, and appeared very "high maintenance."
"The video started playing and the flight attendant held up the card, but the woman started looking down at her book."
"A flight attendant said very patiently 'Can you please watch what's happening because this is the exit row?'"
Their lack of attention was holding the flight up and people were becoming agitated, the unnamed passenger told Stuff.
She added: "The flight attendant was super kind and kept asking her, but the woman put her fingers in her ears.
"They didn't seem to care. The passengers behind them were saying 'For God's sake, it takes two minutes to look at it, just look at it' ... they seemed like they were too important for it."
The plane then returned to the gate where police were waiting to detain them and the flight was delayed by 25 minutes. "You'd think they'd be embarrassed or mortified, but they seemed quite chuffed about the whole thing,” the passenger added.
Wellington Police told The New Zealand Herald that a female passenger will receive an infringement notice under Civil Aviation Authority rules relating to the use of a cellphone.
While there are no rules expressly forcing people to listen to safety instructions, New Zealand’s Civil Aviation Authority states that airlines have a right to refuse to carry passengers that they consider to be a potential risk to the safety of the aircraft, its crew, or its passengers. This includes the right to stop a passenger from flying if they have not obeyed the instructions of ground staff or a member of the crew relating to safety or security.
There have been several cases recently of people being removed from flights before take-off.

Last month, a woman was ejected from a Frontier Airlines flight after complaining about vomit on her daughter’s seat. Rosetta Swinney’s flight was leaving Las Vegas for North Carolina when her 14-year-old daughter sat on a seat with vomit on it, she claimed, according to an ABC 7 report.

Meanwhile in January, a woman was kicked off a United Airlines flight from Las Vegas to Newark after she complained loudly on her cellphone that the passengers next to her were overweight, CBS reported.

That's a bit excessive.

I was fortunate enough to fly their business class from L.A. to Auckland when I was younger. It was the single best flight I have ever taken. The seats were thick Lamb fur and were super soft. They served baked halibut that was very good.
With that said, this couple needs to eat a bag of dicks.

How can a real LSU fan not use "Chuff" as a verb on the reg?
This is a real life example of chuff in a sentence
"Mike VII chuffed for us when we stopped by for a quick visit en route to Alex Box.

Anti-vaxxers are cut out of the same bolt as those two arse clowns.

I've ignored every brief ever.
Could have been me.

It may have been execssive to eject the passengers, but when you purchase a ticket, you also agree to comply to the terms and conditions of their services. So, I don’t really feel sorry for the couple.

Do you think the average person is going to do any of the shite that is asked of them in a plane crash?
In the unlikely event that we survive impact, Steve listening to his headphones during the instruction probably isn’t going to make much of a difference

The safety video offers no useful instructions for emergency exit passengers.

Good

How many times must one listen to the safety briefing before you comprehend it?
What level of attention is required to be paid?
