Frontier Passenger Demands Aircraft Return To Gate, Claims To Be The “Sovereign Ruler” Of “The Seven Continents”

A Frontier Airlines passenger declared herself “president” and “sovereign ruler” of the seven continents after a pilot refused to return to the gate to retrieve her lost mobile phone. Long live the queen…

Frontier Passenger Claims To Be President Of USA, Sovereign Ruler Over World, Own Seven Continents, And Pulls Race Card (For Good Measure) After Captain Refuses To Turn Plane Around After She Left Her Phone In Gate Area

Before boarding a Frontier flight from San Diego (SAN) to Las Vegas (LAS), a woman left her phone in the gate area. She discovered this once the aircraft door had closed, flagged down a flight attendant, and asked that the pilot stop the pushback and return to the gate so she could retrieve her phone.

The flight attendant did call the captain, who declined to return to the gate. That incensed the lady, who quickly launched a profanity-laced tirade and also pulled the race card:

If I was white and in a suit you would stop the f***ing plane. Laugh now, I am the President of this whole g****mn country. Watch see the f***ing TV news. It’s a d*mn bonafied word.

Yes, I need to get off this plane and I’m gonna tell you straight up don’t you every come against nobody because of their skin color again.

You had enough time. I see Frontier do illegal stuff several times. I’ve been riding you for the last 8 years. Don’t tell me you, had enough to stop, tell the pilot to not go. You just released him from the bank. I saw it out the window. I know it was in my heart.

But the flight attendant explained that they could not return to the gate, to which the agitated passenger dismissed as “a lie from the pit of hell.” She further proclaimed:

“I am an affirmed sovereign ruler here in the government. Seven continents I own.”

The passenger recording the video below snickered at this point, which set off the woman even more:

“Keep laughing, watch your a*s be right on a boat. We shipping people out just for a nice group of expedition. What comes goes around it’s time now. Keep laughing watch what happens – you’ll be expired just the like battery on your watch.”

Yes, there’s (NSFW) video:

It isn’t clear if the flight returned to the gate to offload her, but antics like that may seem humorous but are not necessarily harmless if her anger worsens and the matter escalates. It’s not a crime to be insane, but when confined in a metal tube with a 150 other people in a tense situation, someone like that is a ticking time bomb and does not deserve to be on the flight.

One time I left my camera in the gate area (back in the days when we still had separate cameras instead of cell phone cameras). I remember how angry I was…I was flying US Airways from Las Vegas. Of course, I never got it back…but I did not demand the plane turn around and retreat to the gate. We don’t inconvenience a plane full of people because of your carelessness…

    If I were Crew or Passenger and she showed up on board? Instant red flag! Based on her head gear. Good on Captain for not allowing a passenger to tell them what to do. Shes needs her meds reviewed asap.

    No crazier or idiotic than the crap routinely coming out of Trump’s fire-hose of lies every time he opens his mouth. But yeah, pretty rich stuff.

    Thank god we have Frontier, Spirit and other bottom-feeder airlines to act as magnets for these idiots. They serve a very useful purpose (not to mention, they’re perfect clickbait generators, eh?)

        I dunno, Dick is not all that wrong really. Eating the cats and dogs, windmills, Hannibal Lecter, and well, it goes on and on. This would make for a pretty good blog post if said by a passenger on a flight, especially Frontier.

        Just saying.

      Why are all the flaming liberals here either named Dick or love it in the a## and mouth?

      But like most liberals he feels he is better than others that fly discount airlines. And of course he is a liberal because he believes people could never be as successful like him so they need the governments help to live their lives.

      Bottom line, don’t be a Dick! Or a dude hooked on it.

        Kind of like asking why there are racist a-holes are named Dave and are so obsessed with gay men and gay sex? You must be one of those people who crashed Grindr at the RNC this year.

    About 10 years ago I left my laptop in Austin on my way home.

    When I got home I called their lost and found and after a few days I got my laptop back.

    We don’t do this anymore?

    The headwear suggests mental health problems, the rant and the crazy eyes confirm it. Back to the gate we go, the men in white coats will see you now…
