Older Fella On His Way To Hawaii Is Not Pleased With The Price Of A Rental Blanket

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA (HawaiiNewsNow) –
A Hawaiian Airlines flight from Las Vegas to Honolulu was diverted Wednesday after a passenger got upset over being charged for a blanket, police said.

An airline spokesman said the disruptive passenger was on board Hawaiian Airlines Flight 7.

According to the tracking site FlightAware.com, the flight departed around 6:44 a.m. Hawaii time and was in the air for about two hours, even making it over the Pacific Ocean, before turning around and landing in Los Angeles.

Los Angeles Airport police told media that the plane was diverted after a 66-year-old man got upset after asking for a blanket and being told it would cost $12.

The man asked crew members for the number to corporate. After getting the number, the man said, “I would like to take somebody behind the woodshed for this,” according to Los Angeles police.

I’m on the old man’s side here. 12 dollars for a rental blanket? No. Not today and not ever. Early morning flights are the worst. You have to completely change up your schedule. You aren’t sure if you should have your morning coffee because you don’t want your bowels to move while you are on the plane. So what do you do? I’ll tell you what you do. You snuggle your dick off in a blanket and set your headphones to something soft and smooth like Damien Rice. But alas, you forgot your blanket. MOTHER BITCH!

You see Becky walk by and ask her if she has blankets. Of course she does. This is Hawaiian Airlines for Christ’s sake. The blanket can’t get there fast enough because fucking Carl in the middle seat has both vents open to full damn blast. You’re an older gentleman so your circulation isn’t what it used to be and you’re freezing. You need that blanket! Your circulation socks can only accomplish so much. Becky gets back and has the blanket in her hand and then the words come out of her mouth. “That’ll be 12 dollars.”

You fuckin kidding me, Becky? No chance in hell I pay that much. No chance. Take that blanket and shove it up your ass!

The old man summarized this whole situation as well as you possibly can. “I would like to take somebody behind the woodshed for this.” In layman’s terms, he wants to kick some ass, folks, and I dont blame him one bit. 12 dollars for a blanket. Fuck outta here.
