Viral News: It is not a big deal for flights to be late around the world. Sometimes the flight is delayed due to weather, and sometimes a passenger is the reason for it. Recently a strange incident happened in a flight to China. A girl on board the plane refused to keep her expensive Louis Vuitton bag under the chair in front of her. She was adamant that she would keep her expensive bag on the seat next to her. There was so much debate on this matter that finally the woman was deboarded from the flight and the plane could take off only with a delay of one hour.
According to a report by Chinese media outlet ‘South China Morning Post’, this incident happened on August 10, when a female passenger was sitting in the economy class of the plane. The flight attendant asked her to keep her bag under the seat in front of her, but she refused. She kept telling the flight attendant that she would keep her bag on the seat next to her. A co-passenger posted the video of this incident on social media, after which it went viral. So far more than 40 lakh people have seen the video.
When the female passenger refused to keep the bag at the place specified by the flight attendant, she was taken off the plane and sent back to the boarding gate. When the police were taking the woman off the plane, other passengers also clapped a lot. The price of a Louis Vuitton bag in China is three thousand US dollars, while the economy class ticket of China Express Airlines costs 110 US dollars. However, the airline company has not disclosed the name of the female passenger.
This incident is being discussed a lot on Chinese social media. While many people are supporting the female passenger, many people are also posting and commenting against her. A user wrote on the social site Weibo that for the woman, her bag was more valuable than her life. Another user wrote that the flight attendant should have offered the woman another bag to keep her bag. Was it necessary to waste an hour and make her get off the flight? Another user said that the woman should give more importance to her and other passengers’ safety than the bag.
