Watch: Row erupts mid-air as IndiGo airhostess engages in heated argument with passenger, netizens refrain from taking sides
Chandigarh, December 21
A video of an IndiGo Airlines airhostess is doing the rounds on social media where she could be seen engaging in a verbal spat with one of the passengers on board.
The flight was bound to Istanbul from Delhi where a feud broke out between the flight attendant and the passenger, reportedly over serving meal to the latter.
The video clip of the incident has been shared on twitter by a user, Ravisutanjani. The crew member could be seen schooling the passenger for throwing ‘tantrums’ over food. “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,” she could be heard saying in the viral video.
Shut up, You can’t talk to me like that
Yes, I’m an Employee and not your servant
More power to this IndiGo Crew

As the heated exchange continues, the duo chides each other for yelling. The man asks why she was yelling to which she replies, “Because you are yelling on us”.
A colleague of the woman later tries to intervene but the streak of heated outburst continues. The crew member categorically conveys that he “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 could be heard saying. “I am an employee, I am not your servant,” the flight attendant makes last remark only to turn around and end the argument.
Her colleague escorts her to the back of aircraft.
Since being shared, the video has accumulated over 5 lakh views. Netizens have resisted from moral policing of the either side as they believe the video does not substantiate the story fully.
At times air travelers create too much pressure on the cabin crew members.

Everyone coming to conclusion without knowing the full story

More than treating this like a case study- it is ethical to record a video like without person knowing about it?
I don’t think it is right to normalize recording without permission and amplifying this over internet.
One can judge only after knowing both sides of the story.
