In the footage, a gate agent appears to advocate for the passenger while the flight crew insists she must leave aircraft.

Pretty sure I’d get up and walk off the plane. Not sure I wanna be on that flight with that flight crew.

Not sure what these douche bags were thinking. Great advertisement to NOT fly Frontier though.

IANAL but it might be better for the future lawsuit to be forced off.

No I meant just as a sympathetic passenger.

You’re likely totally right about the deaf person.

Oh durr, yep, agree...not the flying experience I'd want.
