People do not realize that this also someones job and money on the line. It is costing tens of thousands for this womans bull. Maybe more. And, it is someones job to have to clean up after her, and fix her mistakes. The woman at the counter of the arriving destination will have to stop and explain to someone who may get upset that they have to wait for a late flight, or this throwing off the schedule for the entire day could cause someone to miss a connecting flight which could be to an important destination. But, it's ok, this woman deserved her 5 minutes...

 

I could not agree more.

 

The sad thing is given all of the publicity associated with this event she will get some hotshot lawyer who will try to justify her anger and how she was "wronged" in the situation. Watch the situation unfold. She will become the victim and the other 150 people screwed by her stupidity and selfishness will be left standing there.

I wish they would just tell passengers the truth and not blatantly lie.

 

The risk of phones and other electronic devices "interfering" with flight controls is laughably small, I'm told by a Motorola engineer.

 

However, the risk to oneself and other passengers should something go wrong during takeoff and landing when a user's attention and focus are elsewhere, that I get.

 

So just tell the passengers: Please bear with us until we're at cruising altitude. The captain would prefer to have your undivided attention in the event of a takeoff or landing emergency.

 

I understand the airlines wanting to keep calm the herd, but they fully acknowledge emergencies and in-flight complications anyways, what's one extra layer to ensure safety/not lie to your patrons?

 

Exactly. Love this West Wing clip about cellphones & planes!

And then the media will jump on it and call it "mobile device rage" and oh look at these other poor people 'suffering' from the same affliction.

Kind of like that girl a month ago who sued the airline because a passenger next to her jerked off.
