This is unbelievable! My kids were asleep, and I'm pretty sure the flight was overbooked. They offered passengers $100 plus new tickets to take a later flight, but no one took it. Then, they kicked a woman and her kids off for simply asking about the delay. Another woman who defended her was also removed.
I was terrified of being kicked off, especially since I couldn't afford another flight. I started recording because I thought it was outrageous that she was removed for asking a question. I felt pressured to stay quiet to avoid the same fate.
They gave us $80 towards a future Frontier flight, but I'll never fly with them again. It was completely unacceptable.
Speaker 0: This is very big. Very big. Okay. Why do somebody this is how I'm gonna get in. This is my kids are sleeping, and I bet we I bet the flight was overbooked.
Yes. It was. And, actually, at the gate, they were offering, like, a bonus, like, a hundred dollars plus new flight tickets or whatever on the next flight out. I don't think anyone took it. And as soon as they kicked, this woman and her kids off, they kicked off another woman for standing up for her, her friend.
They kicked her off and her kids. I was scared that they were literally gonna kick us off the flight, and I didn't have the extra thousand dollars to book another flight through, like, another airline. Otherwise, I would have totally stood up and I thought it was bullshit and that's why I started recording. I didn't believe that she should have been kicked off with her kids for literally asking a question about, like, our flight being delayed. I felt like I had to be silenced and comply with whatever they said because I didn't wanna get kicked off, with my kids.
You know? They, like, gave us a couple, like, money back to $80 towards your next flight with Frontier. And I'm like, I'm never flying with you guys again. What are you talking about?
