February 24Feb 24 If you even wondered for a nanosecond, you're an amateur. The video brings it. One of the biggest airport brawls to have ever erupted in Atlanta was captured in a video that has now gone viral. Dozens of travelers broke out in a massive fight last week at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. The video shows the brawl taking place at a waiting area near a Spirit Airlines boarding gate. https://www.foxnews.com/us/massive-brawl-erupts-atlanta-airport-terminal-viral-video-shows
February 24Feb 24 Alright I’ll say it. Atlanta TSA is a special level of fucked uppedness, the godamn tram between terminals is a fucking beating, the mass of humanity squishing onto the escalators out of hell, THEN facing the prospect of a Spirit Airlines flight…. I don’t blame them.

Last 30 years probably avg. 100 flights a year. So around 3000. 2.75mil butt in seat miles on AA/USAir. 6-10 flights a year on SWA, Delta, United and all their former names. I have yet to see a fight in terminal or plane. Worst issue was because of behavior was a flight from LAX-DFW that was delayed for 2-3 hrs cause someone got on board that shouldn’t have and wouldn’t leave. Wife saw it on tv cause some tv preachers wife thought they were “famous”. I was sitting towards front and never got an explanation of what was going on. I’ve heard a few angry words and a few insults but not much worse. Having said that I will grant you it has gotten a lot worse in last 3 years. Thank god I’m not flying as much last 2 years. Now I’m sure tomorrow’s flight will be an apoplectic shit fest cause I usually have bad luck when I make a declarative statement.

February 25Feb 25 The sign in the background is spectacular comic relief. ”An even better journey begins here soon.” Even better than a brawl in the spirit seating lounge? Unpossible. Needs theme music Videoshop_2025-02-24_23-46-09.mov Edited February 25Feb 25 by GenXer

I don’t blame them. the problems people have with spirit are our own cultural problems. plenty of other parts of the world would take the discount and be perfectly happy and grateful on a spirit flight. and most people are, anyway. like the guy said upthread, air travel is mostly uneventful.

This would be a much deeper discussion on how people get to this point in their adult life and do this. I’ll leave it at these morons should be banned from every airport in the US for at least 5 years for this. I have not flown as often as many of y’all do, but I never have issues flying or waiting for a flight.
