i had to witness three delayed spirit flights (due to fights on the plane followed by arrests) before I quit flying spirit. That is how jewish I am. I miss the entertainment though. I never really felt in danger though. It is usually black on black violence.

Next time I fly I'm flying Spirit. Save some money and possibly get a show? Not a bad deal

I got sick of missing my connecting flights though. Think it happened on two of them. Had to deboard the plane on two of them (I think it was two) because there wasnt another takeoff window for a long butt time.

“Spirit airline passenger” feels like it could be a new euphemism

Absolutely unacceptable, but unfortunately these airline issues will only increase as they continue to pack people in like sardines, and have issues requiring people to spend hours sitting on the tarmac.

I agree. she is 100% out of line and should be arrested. AND… this is going to continue to be more and more common. When you pack people in confined spaces (some with emotional regulation problems) after being charged up the wazoo plus an extra $50 for a carry on and 5 bucks for a non-alcoholic drink, then sit on the tarmac and forbid anyone from using the restroom, etc etc etc.

Not to mention nicotine withdrawal, which made me angrier than I've ever been. Having lozenges or patches on the plane would help a lot.

Airlines need to offer free nicotine patches :marseylaugh: also carry ons are a meme just put all your shit in a backpack. As long as it fits under a seat they dont give a frick about the exact size of weight

:marseyagree:I fly regularly and I've never used the overhead compartment once, just chuck my bag under the seat, less likely to have my laptop damaged.

Yeah when I used to fly for work a lot my carryon backpack was heavier than my checked baggage most of the time. Packed that shit to the limit. Namaste.

We commend China's remarkable achievements in the field of human rights by adhering to the people-centered development philosophy and protecting and promoting human rights through development. We also appreciate China's contributions to the international human rights cause.

We take note that terrorism, separatism and religious extremism has caused enormous damage to people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang, which has seriously infringed upon human rights, including right to life, health and development. Faced with the grave challenge of terrorism and extremism, China has undertaken a series of counter-terrorism and deradicalization measures in Xinjiang, including setting up vocational education and training centers. Now safety and security has returned to Xinjiang and the fundamental human rights of people of all ethnic groups there are safeguarded. The past three consecutive years has seen not a single terrorist attack in Xinjiang and people there enjoy a stronger sense of happiness, fulfillment and security. We note with appreciation that human rights are respected and protected in China in the process of counter-terrorism and deradicalization.

We appreciate China's commitment to openness and transparency. China has invited a number of diplomats, international organizations officials and journ*list to Xinjiang to witness the progress of the human rights cause and the outcomes of counter-terrorism and deradicalization there. What they saw and heard in Xinjiang completely contradicted what was reported in the media. We call on relevant countries to refrain from employing unfounded charges against China based on unconfirmed information before they visit Xinjiang. We urge the OHCHR, Treaty Bodies and relevant Special Procedures mandate holders to conduct their work in an objective and impartial manner according to their mandate and with true and genuinely credible information, and value the communication with member states.
