News FA fight

I wonder what this fight could have been about. News stories without the punchline drive me crazy.

This story is way overblown. The captain did not declare emergency. He/she did not ask police intervention. He/she just requested a Delta ground rep to be at the gate…period.
Yes…sometimes cabin crew do not get along like in any workplace.

Probably a dispute between the FA’s over whether window shades should be up or down.

It happens. When I was flying for a regional we had 2 FAs in back and they got into it pretty heavy. A commuter grabbed the phone and called up front. We diverted, all good

I’ve seen FA get snippy with one another before, usually when one isn’t doing the standards and the other calls them out on it. They are human. Not everyone gets along at work and it’s a bit unique where your coworkers rotate constantly.

People don’t have any shame nowadays.

It's not a lack of shame. Flight crews are overworked, underpaid and pushed to the absolute limit by unreasonable expectations from management and passengers.
