Flight Attendant Drags Ranting Mother Off American Airlines Flight

Matthew Klint Posted onJuly 24, 2021November 14, 2023 44 Comments

An American Airlines flight attendant hauled off a troubled woman who felt the need to scream out her objections to a number of issues including the “corruption” of Disney and her objection to same-sex marriage. Oh, and she wasn’t wearing a mask.

American Airlines Flight Attendant Drags Raving Mother Off Flight

The incident occurred onboard an AA flight from Dallas to Orlando. While it isn’t clear what started the encounter, a maskless woman is captured on video screaming at the passengers around her.

Among her statements:

“F***ing faggots! You corrupted Disney!”

“You think I talk to my kids about same-sex marriage? No, we don’t talk about that. But if y’all wanna talk about it, let’s talk about it. About how lesbians…?”

Another passenger onboard spoke up:

“I’m in a lesbian marriage and I fought for this country. Please get off this plane.”

A flight attendant appeared and hauled her off the plane to applause onboard. Police were waiting on the jet bridge, though it is not clear if the woman was detained.

The woman was later identified as Kelci Cashman, a Texas realtor.

An American Airlines spokesperson did not go into detail, providing a catch-all statement on poor passenger behavior:

“We expect our customers to comply with our policies when they choose to travel with us, and we take action when that is not the case. Harassment of any kind will not be tolerated and we thank our team members for their professionalism.”

If you prefer, you can watch the video below, which first appeared on Reddit but was placed on YouTube by Paddle Your Own Kanoo. But be warned – it is really full of vile language:

CONCLUSION

How sad a woman would make such disgusting remarks, particularly in front of her children. I hope she is banned from flying on American Airlines and fined for refusing to abide by the mask mandate which she voluntarily agreed to follow by when booking her ticket with American Airlines and checking in her for her flight.

    @Matthew: why keep reporting these news on your blog? Seriously, you can do much better than that. I know it is travel related but I don’t think it belongs on your blog. There is a lot of sick people out there and instead of criticizing them we should probably hope they find the help their need. Many said that the pandemic real problem would would not be Covid related but mental health issues and that is what we are seeing it all over the place. Just look the number of suicides in this country. Sad, very sad but our politicians don’t care. Please bring travel reports, restaurants reports, etc… and not news about sick people.

      I don’t think she is sick, just rude and spoiled. People like that need to be called out over and over again until such behavior ceases.

        I believe that such person may or may not meet the criteria for mental illness but does have underlying undiscovered mental condition. Someday in the future, voters may elect a government that gives this type of person monthly disability checks. I believe so because I think things like anger and rage originate on the genetic and molecular level. We think we have free will but it’s serotonin, epinephrine and other neurotransmitters.

        Did I mention that I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express?

        What would you say of all the antisocial behavior being tolerated by prosecutors in places like Los Angeles and San Francisco? This awful woman should be shunned, but shoplifters and murderers should roam free? No human is illegal! Love is love!

        So Matthew, lets understand, you are perfectly okay with anti social elements who celebrate cops death, who wish death to those who are not masked and who riot the cities and rob the hard working people, because I never see you calling over them.
        If there is one thing, you should honestly stop talking about? It’s the morales as you do not seem to know the very meaning of morals and or ethical behaviors.
        To me, it’s wrong whether Trump does it or Biden does it or Bush does it or Obama does it. So is whether the person is white, black, brown or whatsoever color. It’s the contents that I look for not the skin color or their political affiliations or their religion or the region one is from. Unfortunately, you seem to be bother about the later.

            Are you suggesting travel is ONLY possible through air? Yes thugs and anti-social element travel from one part of America to another whether by air, bus, car or whatsoever way has nothing to do. Maybe just maybe you should start learning about the word ‘Travel” before bragging about anything snowflake.

        No, Rage and hate on the level where it escalates into violence is a real problem, in fact a mental health issue. And having a bonafide mental patient in the oval office for four years has validated all the sick crazies out there so that they feel justified in carrying out their rage. I’m sick of seeing F**k Biden flags and hats and bumperstickers. Are we really at the point where someone who isn’t a real rat bastard but actually a man of compassion and intelligence be treated in this fashion?

        • BlackHill Reply
          July 25, 2021 at 12:11 pm

          @Patrick M Matteson, I’m sick of seeing F**k biden posters and signs too. But I’m also sick of seeing F**k cops or ICE or any anti-law enforcement signs too. In fact I’m sick of seeing any group or any person encouraging violence against anyone or any group(s). We are a nation of laws and that laws apply to every single humans in this country. Don’t like the law, change it legally with the help of representatives(Congress). But neither the congress nor the President or any conservatives or liberals or anyone has any right to pick and choose what they want to enforce and what they don’t want to enforce.
          Real compassion is when we show sympathetic pity and concern for the sufferings or misfortunes of others irrespective of their political leaning, skin color, religion that they follow or the region that they came from.

      It’s what gets the clicks. Sometimes I don’t even know why I visit the site these days. I used to come here for flight reviews and travel deals, not to read about someone being crazy in AA/Spirit. I wouldn’t read Car and Driver or Autoblog if all they talked about every day was some road rage incident in Florida. I have heard others hate on TPG but the guys over there literally post actual travel news, not Florida Man bad posts every day.

    Amazing we are at this point. I wonder what started her on her rant? Was she maskless the entire flight? Which by the way seems to be more common on every flight I’m on. I think some of the FA’s have given up.

          if more people would quit refusing to get vaccinated, for really lame reasons, masks mandates could also drop.
          You do have the right to not wear a mask.
          American also has the right to say you don’t fly without one.

      James, not sure what this snowflake thing is you speak of. I haven’t called anyone a name since the 3rd grade. But then I had good parents. As an airline capt daily 200 people get in my airplane and have no problem playing by the rules. Curious if you’d mind if I picked which rules I played by. I make it very clear to all my passengers that the masks are required. I give them every opportunity to deplane if they choose not to wear them. And yes, I’ve had 3 removed by the police upon landing for not complying. I instruct my flight attendants not to engage them other than to let them know the police will be waiting for them upon arrival. The choice is yours.

      The only snowflake in this video is the woman throwing slurs. People who refuse to wear masks in general are the biggest snowflakes around. They are fragile, emotional and unstable.

    The way to stop this is to 1) arrest them and 2) fine them bigtime, like $1,000.00, and 3) put them on an ALL AIRLINE no fly list so the rest of us won’t ever have to put up with them.

    When are these morons going to learn this isn’t about whether they get sick or not? This is about the fact that their ill prepared immune systems wind up making them little variant factories that, more likely than not, will wind up killing millions more. At this rate we’re going to get thru the entire greek alphabet.
