Don't take Singapore. It was terrible. And I had diarrhea (not funny in Asian countries ) by the time I reached Singapore.

Even here, diarrhea is not funny if it is happening to you. It is funny when it happens to others!

That's not true at all. If a plane is turned around due to a customer being thrown off, the police are there waiting at the door, regardless of the reason... And that's best case scenario, more likely they enter the plane to escort the customer off the plane.

The last time I had diarrhea on a plane was when I ate on United. First class to Tokyo from IAD. They didn't even have soy sauce and what they did have made me sick. Quite a different experience from booking the chef on Singapore.

I don't fly UAL anymore. And I had almost a million actual on them.

Based on what we know it doesn’t sound logical to kick someone off for making a joke. It happens so rarely that I would bet that there is more to the story.
The reason is because they are jumped up napoleons drunk on the tiny vestige of power they have over the unfortunates crammed in the sardine can.

Flying is such a miserable experience these days. Between security theater in the airport to shoehorning oneself into a space fit for a child for hours on end, no wonder people prefer to drive whenever possible.

Congrats cairns you made it to my blocked list. Won’t have to see any more of your useless rants, attacks or responses.

Telling someone you blocked them just makes them laugh.

It is sneakier to do it silently, then they wonder if their posts aren't interesting enough to garner response.

My all time favorite passengers. A little stinky but they follow instructions and don’t whinge like a bunch of cry babies.
