"You guys suck! My parents are worth $2 million!"

This fucking dude:

Sexually assaulted flight attendants, bragged about how rich his parents were, and generally acted like an aggressive little shit while his plane was in flight.

Some flight attendants solved this problem by duct taping him into his chair. Sadly, they are now suspended without pay pending Frontier Airlines' investigation, because "proper restraint procedures were not followed."

(Further down the thread, you can see a guy from Frontier commenting about this. When asked what proper procedure actually is, he says Frontier has no further comment at this time. Hmmmmmm.)

Anyway I hope this piece of shit gets jail time and disowned by his parents, but let's be honest, he'll probably get off scot free - and he probably learned his shitheel behavior from Dad.

What a douchebag.

Also, maybe I'm just getting out of perspective with living on the coasts, but $2 million isn't even that impressive. If it was an impressive amount, he wouldn't be in coach.

He played stupid games and won stupid prizes. Hope the flight attendants get off without any penalty.

The little shit got arrested when the plane landed.

And the crew is on PAID leave while the incident is being investigated. Considering that it's reported that other passengers were actually cheering once the asshole was subdued and taped to his seat, I suspect that Frontier is not going to get away with it easily if they screw with the flight attendants.

YAAAAAY good. And also LOL, paid leave for flight attendants would apparently be a first, if the thread comments are to be believed.

Edit:

"This will forever be the most dehumanizing experience in my entire life," Berry wrote. "Many people laughed and ridiculed me as I was mistreated by staff of a PROFESSIONAL airline."

GOOD. Maybe that will help him remember to not be a drunk violent ass next time.

You want to see real entitlement in action LN? check out the case of "Lady Profeco" in Mexico. In all fairness, it's from 2013. But THAT should tell you how feudal Latin American cultures are.

how about a summary for those of us who don't subscribe to the financial times and don't wish to google the topic?

Ok.

Back in 2013, the daughter of the head of the Mexican Government's Consumer Protection Agency (known by its acronym: PROFECO) went to a small high end restaurant and asked for a outdoor table because she was a smoker. There were none so she had to wait. She got impatient and offensive. When her demands were not met, she called PROFECO (notice she didn't call Daddy: She called PROFECO DIRECTLY) and demanded to have inspectors shut down the place. WHICH THEY DID. When news of this came out on Social Media, public outcry was so loud that she and her father had to apologize publicly and her father had to resign from his post.The article mentioned that situations like that were (and probably still are) pretty common. And that in that particular case, it was thanks to social media that public outcry was raised. Apparently, since then, the term "Lady PROFECO" is the Mexican equivalent of the US "Karen".

What I found particularly infuriating was that this person called the agency directly and they actually complied with her demands. Furthermore, when the scandal broke out, the inspectors in question where summarily fired.

This should you and idea of the kind of feudal culture that prevails in Latin America.

Sounds a bit like a few years ago when the daughter of the Korean Air chairman made a flight return to a gate so she could fire a steward for serving her nuts in their packaging and not in a bowl.

Which for the record, has an entertaining Wikipedia article where someone helpfully added an image of some nuts in a bowl.

YIKES! In plenty of ways it's worse than the "Lady Profeco" incident. The only part where it's not actually worse is that she wasn't related to a Government official.
