How much was the fine. I'd be willing to pitch in a little extra for in-flight entertainment! Hello Southwest!

I find this thread offensive to all those involved in the airline industry!

Anyway, it looks like it was on the aply named VietJet Airlines...VJA for short...as in VA-JA-JA Airlines!!

They were fined ~$750? I bet they made that up in increased sales in, say, two seconds after these videos were posted online!

I fly US Air most of the time, and I have to say, they do not hire from the same pool, although it seems to be getting slightly better.

Fined the airline???? What the hell is wrong with people. If more events like this occurred, maybe we'd be able to have world peace. They should of been awarded and honored, not fined. Jeez!!! Wish I was on that plane, I'd take one to the stall to join the mile high club.
