Smiling stewardesses? No more: Delta now has fist fighting female flight attendants.

Jan 31, 2016

In the old days, flight attendants had to be slim and beautiful, and had to smile. Today, this is no longer an issue and illegal. A fist fight between female flight attendants on Delta Airlines flight 2957 from Los Angeles to Minneapolis last week was not meant to be a version of a female boxing match and done for entertainment. It was serious business and forced this passenger to make an emergency landing in the Mormon state of Salt Lake City, Utah.

The fighting female stewardesses had a disagreement over work issues with Delta and felt they had to fight it out in front of their passengers.

A third staff member tried to break it up, but ended up getting punched herself, at which point she informed the captain of what was happening.

The captain told passengers he was diverting the plane to Salt Lake City as he "wanted to hear from his flight attendants" the Aviation Herald reported.

Passengers were forced to sit on board the plane for 80 minutes before continuing their flight without the violent female flight crew.

Most Airlines in USA, flying Internationally are left behind from their rival Airlines. Compared to EK / EY / QR with attentive. polite crew, good services offered to their regular clients traveling in and out to U.S.
