The accompanying video depicts a heated exchange between an airhostess and a passenger (who is not visible). The crew member accuses the passenger of being harsh to the crew, which caused one of them to cry.
The airhostess tells the man, “You are pointing finger at me and yelling at me. My crew is crying because of you. Please try to understand, there is a cart and counted meals are uplifted (on the plane). We can only serve what your boarding…”
But before she could complete, the passenger shoots back, “Why are you yelling?” “Because you are yelling on us,” the airhostess replies, raising her voice.
Her colleague intervenes and tries to calm them down but the passenger and the airhostess keep firing shots at each other.
“I am sorry but you cannot talk to the crew like that. I am peacefully listening to you with all due respect but you have to respect the crew as well,” she is seen telling the passenger.
The man asks, “Where have I disrespected the crew?” to which the airhostess again highlights the finger pointing. “Shut up,” the man says. “You shut up,” replies the airhostess adding that she is an employee of the company and he cannot talk to her like that.
The man then says she is a servant, to which she again clarifies she is an employee. “I am not your servant.”
Tempers soaring even mid-air: "I am not your servant"
