An American woman was dragged off of a Korean Air flight after refusing to leave business class to sit in her purchased economy seat.
The unnamed woman was kicked off the flight, set to fly to San Francisco from South Korea on July 27, because she created a disturbance.
Footage of the incident was shared by Korean newspaper Korea JoongAng Daily, with the woman’s face pixelated.
The video shows several flight attendants working together to pull the woman out of a business class seat and push her out of the plane with the help of police officers. Some seated passengers are heard clapping.
The woman has not been identified apart from being an American and 30-years-old.
The airline stated that the woman was assigned to sit in 40D in economy class but wanted to sit in 14B in business class.
“We plan to investigate her as soon as the hospital completes her examination.”
