A Disgusting New Low: Passengers Engage In Congress On American Airlines While Flight Attendants Willfully Ignore…

Matthew Klint Posted onSeptember 8, 2021September 8, 2021 47 Comments

Flight Attendants Ignore Congress

Have we really come to this point? Have we really reached a state of affairs in which flight attendants will simply ignore sexual acts being performed on an airplane for everyone to see? Because that is exactly what appears to have happened on a flight operated on behalf of American Airlines.

Flight Attendants Ignore Passengers Engaged In Congress In Economy Class

It’s not clear when the incident took place, but a few things appear to be going on:

  1. The incident takes places on a regional jet operating on behalf of American Airlines
  2. A woman appears to give a man fellatio
  3. During the encounter, two flight attendants walk by and say nothing

Yes, there is a video. No, I am not embedding it here. Part of me hopes it is an elaborate TikTok joke, like the man who pretended to cook a steak in the lavatory. But part of me is not even surprised. What should surprise us anymore after a year of horrible behavior onboard?

Wryly, the person who posted this on Twitter said:

This went on for 25 minutes as American Airlines flight attendants said nothing. However they did yell at four people to put their masks on after each bite… Did American find the cure?

Yes, apparently some people did not have to wear a mask in between bites…

CONCLUSION

I hesitated posting this at all because I think it is really quite vile. It’s truly disgusting. But the fact that not just one but two flight attendants simply ignored this makes it a noteworthy story. If this is how flight attendants treat poor behavior onboard, what good will they be when other trouble breaks out?

    “A disgusting new low”? It’s consensual sex. Obviously completely inappropriate in a public space, but I’d consider people attacking crew or sexually assaulting others to be a much lower low. Unfortunately, we’ve seen plenty of both of these behaviours.

    Not sure if I have ever heard the term “engage in Congress” in this context. Was expecting some kind of protest invoking Pelosi, AOC, McCarthy or something

    If you really wanted hits why not put fellatio in the headline instead of Congress?

    To me this is no worse than the SW pilot pleasuring himself with a co pilot in there with him. Nothing is shocking in Joe Biden’s America anymore.

      @Dave Edwards If you’re going to make a political comment, at least get it right. The event in question happened on August 10, 2020.

      In other words, during the term of the grandest degenerate ever to hold the Presidency of the United States.

      Then again, cluelessness about facts was also endemic during the last administration, too, so you’re on brand.

      You’re probably right. I just didn’t want to be so explicit in the title.

    Engage in sexual congress is the phrase you were trying for but even that doesn’t accurately describe the video since it’s just oral sex and the guy was wearing a seatbelt.

      Well aware…I was just looking for a polite euphemism and this was the best I could come up with. Should have just said oral…

    So I joined the “Mile High Club” on a TWA flight SEA-ANC with about 7 people on board. But we had the “class” to do the deed in the back galley because my cohort was an FA on the flight. Yeah, and it was in 1989 when I was 24 so….

    “With the cabin dark and the first class passengers totally neglected, Heidi joined me in my suite and we had a nice chat, did some reading together, discussed the news, joined the mile high club, played cards and watched a movie together.” https://liveandletsfly.com/etihad-777-first-class-review/

    It’s apparently only disgusting if you do it in economy.

            There’s a substantial difference between a first class suite with the lights off and a packed cabin on a regional jet with the lights on, cameras rolling, and FAs walking down the aisle. No one saw our congress. I’m sure many saw this BJ and will never be able to erase it from their minds. Context matters. Had these two done it in the lavatory, there would be no story.

      Flight attendants walking by ignoring it? Is this what we have come to? It needs to be called out.

      • Brian Reply
        September 9, 2021 at 2:15 pm

        Matthew: I suppose the call out would go something like this:

        “Ladies and gentlemen: This is the Captain speaking. A flight attendant has just advised me that Mr. Big in row 19 is in the process of receiving a blowjob from his seatmate. I would like to remind everyone that sexual congress on this flight is strictly prohibited, except in first class. I have asked the flight attendants to immediately escort Mr. Big’s seatmate to the cockpit. Thank you.”

    I received an HJ from a seatmate on a United flight from LAX to LHR sometime around 1995 or so. We used the blanket for cover but given the angle at which the FAs can see the seats as they walk the aisle, there’s little doubt some FAs (including the purser) saw us. They were totally indifferent. This was before I got sober so what at the time I thought was a cool experience now looks embarrassing and disrespectful of the passengers around us. Glad I finally grew up.

    Pretty sure this is a case of “you don’t know the whole story”…. MIA flights are notorious for female pax who have just had “enhancement surgery” on their bottom who sit on their knees after the seatbelt sign goes off because it’s too painful to sit down. This is Very Common on MIA, SDQ, BOG flights.

    Is this “quite vile” and “truly disgusting” because said congress happened in economy class? I seem to recall a post where you had written you had been intimate with your wife in first or business.

      Because it was done in front of everyone.
