dlndavid:So what next? A bill of rights for restaurants, emergency rooms, long lines at the super market. If you don't like the service someone is providing, don't patronize them.
Thank you, a voice of reason.

catherine96821:Just tell them you need to get off the plane.
Don't ask, tell them. I cannot believe how often people forfeit their rights.
Damn right - any pilot with guts would do the right thing - except there goes the career, pension, house mortgage, etc.TxHockeyGuy:This same thing happened to me about 4 years ago coming back from Mexico and landing in DFW. The only difference is my pilot pulled into a terminal without authorization after only a little more than an hour. I know it was without authorization as the ground crews were trying to stop us from pulling in and wouldn't move the walkway over to the airplane. They eventually did another 10 minutes later and we all got off. There were some rather heated words exchanged between our pilot and some official. Since our pilot was Mexican he was probably much more willing to break the rules here where than an American pilot as there probably isn't a whole lot they can do to him.
It takes a lot to arrest a pretty lady. You & I are at risk, tho.Don't forget that - once you're on the plane (in the U.S.) that flight attendants can and will have you arrested for disorderly conduct.

I am surprised many don't....??Of course, if I had been in the economy cabin I would've gone ballistic.
