.....instead of nuts on a fancy plate.
[quote]South Korea’s government is investigating an air-rage incident on board a Korean Air flight from New York to Seoul last Friday that culminated in a senior member of crew being ordered to leave the plane by the passenger moments before it was scheduled to take off.
Reports from Seoul said Cho Hyun-ah, the airline’s vice-president and the eldest daughter of its chief executive, Cho Yang-ho, could face legal action following the incident, which forced the aircraft to stop taxiing and return to its gate at JFK airport.[/quote]

Airplane food is serious business, you have no idea. It involves giving a plastic bag of snacks to people.
But in all seriousness is bringing your own food really that dangerous?

She didn't bring her own food, she was offered nuts. In a bag. Which made her mad.
that's like, the prime example of being a spoilt brat
I thought it might have been to do with allergies but christ what an over reaction.
If I ever get loaded, I'm raising my kid in an apartment

Bill Cosby might not be the best thing to bring up at this point, but this is very relevant.

Bet they have to deal with peanut protests every flight.
I didn't picture the peanut kind of nut at first glance. Weirded me out.
How goddamn childish can you get

It always makes me wonder how useful spoiled rich kids are to a company
Do they actually have any business sense or are they just given positions out of formality (the latter, probably)
You can't really continue a legacy if your kids are dipshits

Yeah, I thought the title wasn't accurate enough, seeing as the person was the VP of the damn entire company.

nepotism is alive and thriving
She should be glad she didnt fly on aeroflot, they'd probably forget to serve food or serve the wrong thing or something resembling melted plastic.
tbh though Ive had good experiences on Korean Air, and so have my friends, I haven't had a problem with their nuts either
People like that should be removed
This situation is just nuts.

Or at least painted a different color.

The flight attendant stops, slowly turns around, brushes a platinum lock out of her eyes before saying, "... deal with it BLYAT FUCKING BITCH."
A few seconds later the captain comes out, "YOU WHORE LISTEN THIS IS MY PLANE RUSSIAN PLANE SHUT YOUR BITCH MOUTH."
"ENJOY AEROFLOT WHORE."
"I DON"T ALLOW PLATES ON PLANE."
Ground crew comes in, "Ready to go, captain... BITCH! RICH WHORE SHUT YOUR MOUTH."

How the fuck are you going to keep your nuts on a plate when you're about to takeoff? You'll get nuts right in your face. Not only that, but tray tables should be up during takeoff right? So now you want to balance a plate of nuts on your lap? Sounds like the attendant was actually being smart about how to serve nuts.
I hope the daughter gets fined out the ass.

What, the daughter who was VP of the company? It was a massive overreaction, but they were her employees.

That's why family businesses in Japan sometimes adopt adult males. When thier children are too inept to manage the company properly, they're scrapped and a stranger is adopted into the family and gets the family name, thus having the business stay in the family and continuing the legacy. I think it's a pretty cool concept.

The fines will come from the FAA because she fucked with air traffic over some damn nuts that sound like they were served in an appropriate manner before takeoff, a bag of nuts is much easier to keep secured than a plate of loose nuts.
Its a big safety concern when a plane suddenly comes back to its gate unexpectedly. Its downright irresponsible of a VP to operate like that especially since she is not the captain of the aircraft, and I hope they come down on her hard over such bullshit.
[QUOTE=Mort Stroodle;46679820]What, the daughter who was VP of the company?

There's regulations about the chain of command on an aircraft and she [i]clearly[/i] violated them, that's where the fines will come from.
