Delta Apologizes for Not Removing Disruptive Pro-Trump Passenger

Passenger was shouting obscenities at Hillary supporters.

Delta Airlines has apologized for not removing a passenger who was shouting obscenities at Hillary Clinton supporters on one of its flights. The apology comes following the release of a video posted to Facebook that shows the pro-Trump passenger yelling at passengers at the back of the plane, calling them “Hillary bitches” and declaring his support for the president-elect. “Our responsibility for ensuring all customers feel safe and comfortable with Delta includes requiring civil behavior from everyone,” Delta said in a statement. “The behavior we see in this video does not square with our training or culture and followup will continue so we can better ensure our employees will know they will be fully supported to make the right decisions when these issues arise.” The flight originated in Atlanta and landed in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
