Passengers forced to deplane from US flight after woman refuses to wear mask

2020-09-08 25

A plane full of passengers were deplaned after a woman refused to wear her mask during the flight.

The clip, filmed on August 19, on a flight from Houston to Atlanta shows a woman being asked to leave the plane before the pilot announces that everyone has to leave.

Professional photographer Taylor Mailloux told Newsflare: "Before we even got on the plane she was stopped and asked to wear a mask onto the plane, she proceeded to show the person checking her in a note on her phone from a 'doctor' and they wouldn’t accept it so she was placed aside and then I saw her board the plane wearing a mask."

The woman eventually put a mask on to board the plane, but then took it off once she was seated. According to Mailloux, she was approached around three times to wear a mask once on the plane. When she refused, the announcement was made for the passengers to all start deboarding the flight, which is when the other passengers became very frustrated.

The 23-year-old photographer added: "We got up to start to deboard the plane and she decided that now was the time she was gonna get off and everyone else can stay on. Well, half the plane already had deboarded before she got off."

The woman eventually left the plane and the other passengers were allowed to return, and the flight left safely without the woman on board.
