Delta Airlines in the United States was recently sued by a mother because she was sexually harassed by a drunk man in the next seat when she took her daughter on a flight in July 2022. The mother once asked the flight attendant for help, but in exchange for only saying “be patient”, she even continued to serve alcohol to the man. Although the mother complained to the airline afterwards, the mother was very dissatisfied with Delta Air Lines’ actions. In the end, the mother sued the court and demanded $2 million from Delta Air Lines.
According to the “Fox Financial News Network” report, the incident occurred on July 26, 2022, when the mother took her 16-year-old daughter from New York’s Kennedy International Airport (JFK International Airport) to take Delta Air Lines to Greece. . During the voyage, the man in the seat next to the girl started to talk to the girl after he was drunk. Seeing that the girl ignored him, he started yelling and even made obscene gestures, asking the girl to provide her address and contact information. and other personal information.
During the period, the drunk man even grabbed the girl and patted and stroked the girl’s back, which also caused the girl’s panic attacks. Seeing her daughter being harassed, the girl’s mother immediately reported it to the flight attendant, but the flight attendant dismissed the mother with “be patient” and even continued to serve alcoholic drinks to the drunk man. The whole incident went on until some other male passengers couldn’t stand it anymore and took the initiative to exchange seats with the girl, and the girl was able to escape.
After the plane landed, the mother asked Delta to call the police to arrest the drunk man, but Delta ignored it and let the drunk man leave the airport. After complaining to Delta Air Lines, Delta Air Lines only asked the flight attendant to apologize to the girl and her mother and give 5,000 miles as compensation.
Faced with such insincere handling measures, the girl’s mother was extremely dissatisfied, and finally filed a lawsuit with the court, demanding that Delta Air Lines must pay 2 million US dollars as punitive damages. Delta Air Lines has yet to comment on the lawsuit. The report mentioned that Delta Air Lines has stated in the past that “the company has zero tolerance for customers who engage in inappropriate or illegal behavior, and there is nothing more important than the safety of our customers and employees.”
