Too Hot to Fly? 18 year old women claim discrimination by SW Airlines because of their hotness!

[NewJeffCT]

you be the judge!



If you're not young, female and beautiful, you may not realize how awful it can be to fly Southwest Airlines. Seriously! Just ask Nisreen Swedberg and Sarah Williams, two college girls who got escorted off a flight that landed in LA--and banned for life from the low cost carrier.

Sarah thinks she knows what the problem was

I think they were discriminating against us because we were young, decent looking girls, I mean, nobody else on the plane looked like us.

were like older ladies. We were younger. Who knows, they could have been just jealous of us because we were younger.

Of course, it could've been the obscenities Sarah was swapping with another passenger. On touchdown in California, four police officers escorted the ladies off the plane at the request of flight attendants.

Southwest was so miffed that they canceled the girls' return flights to Tampa. They must've done something besides be good lookin'--even Kyla didn't get banned for life!

1. I thought that I was the only one to whom this had happened

After so many missed flights, it gets kind of wearying.

[NewJeffCT]

2. Must be tough!

are you banned for life on SW airlines, too?

[Orrex]

5. Yes, but

That's because I refused to wear pants during the flight.

I refuse to be bound by the strictures of prudish airspace nannies.

[TZ]

35. ROFL!!

It's hard on the streets for a Kewpie Doll....:rofl:

[DS1]

3. ah. the precious little snowflake generation grows up

what a shallow pair of shits these two are


like omigawd!

[NewJeffCT]

7. well, there is video of one of them talking, too

and, she looks way different without makeup.

I mean, a lot bigger change than normal with most women.

[DS1]

11. that's quite the before and after

[tammywammy]

32. Holy crap!

That's a night and day difference.

[NewJeffCT]

33. or, as I said

Jekyll & Hyde. I think there is less of a difference in your average movie star.

[Mezzo]

18. yep, and they're VOTING en masse.

we will reap what we sow.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

4. what bullshit. people bend over to be nice to pretty people

gah

[NewJeffCT]

6. I've never noticed

but, if you say so...

:evilgrin:

[redqueen]

15. Exactly. (nt)

[unpossibles]

8. I don't think they are all that

not at all.

[NewJeffCT]

9. esp. if you see the video

in the link in my reply to DS1

[DainBramaged]

10. Wait a hot minute

:hi: :rofl:

[NewJeffCT]

12. I told you you needed a better headline

I got more views in 5 minutes than you did in a few hours!

[DainBramaged]

13. That's ok, I get quality views

Neeiner nanner:woohoo:

[NewJeffCT]

34. wait till my next one

that will get a similar response.

[Crabby Appleton]

14. That sucks, I hate it when I get kicked off the plane for excessive hotness!1!

[Iris]

16. omg. So the stewardesses were "haters"

yeah, right.

[NewJeffCT]

39. to be fair, Southwest has had repeated problems with attractive female passengers

They had told another woman that her skirt was too shirt and she had to cover her legs with a blanket... and, they told another that her boobs were too big and to cover herself with a blanket as well.

[Iris]

43. skirt too short, I can understand. Boobs?

Maybe they should charge the woman for another seat?

[NewJeffCT]

44. Here is that story (with picture)

http://hitsusa.com/blog/111/setara-qassim/

[Iris]

45. bizarre

but reminds me of a friend from Louisana. Whenever her mom (in her late 80s) goes to the airport, she looks around at how people are dressed and says, "These people are dressed for THE BUS!"

[EstimatedProphet]

17. 18 going on 12

[Pacifist Patriot]

19. Sorry, but they look more stupid than "hot."

Hard to tell with all the warpaint on.

[flvegan]

20. Ah, shit. They live in Tampa.

[NewJeffCT]

40. and

at least the brunette is not all that hot without her makeup.

were you surprised they were from Florida?

[trof]

21. "I'm too sexy for my plane."

:rofl:

[Blue Diadem]

23. .

:spray: :rofl:

[skater314159]

25. Now that is stuck in my head!

EDIT: had to fix link - got the wrong vid when I googled! Oops!

[NewJeffCT]

50. I just heard that song the other day

weird.

[theredpen]

22. Check out the video

Hot or not? Not.

[skater314159]

24. Can you say "Sense of ENTITLEMENT"?

And I don't know where it comes from... they look pretty average to me.

It seems that they are just looking for their 15 minutes - such a shame it is because of this they get to be "famous".

Thanks a lot Paris - this is a real crappy trend you started.

[Iris]

37. I guess they buy into the line that younger automatically means prettier.

I'm sure they'll look back on this one day and be embarrassed.

[geardaddy]

26. Not hot enough.

[MilesColtrane]

27. "I'm tired of these muthafuckin' foxes on this muthafukin' plane!"

[cloudbase]

28. A combined I.Q.

lower than their combined bust measurements.

[Fox Mulder]

29. They're full of themselves.

:eyes:

[Tripper11]

30. I call shenanigans on the TV station!!!!

I mean seriously....they only talked to the girls, didn't question the airline. The girls are making the claim. How in the hell can they even prove it?
What if the flight crew were interviewed and they said that the girls were, annoying, spoiled, huge attitude brats that for once didn't get thier way because of their looks???

The only comment is from the airline itself "Southwest defends the incident, saying the women caused a disruption on the flight" which would be the standard line anyway, it's broad enough.

"Nobody else on the plane looked like us, excpet for us" What a fucking genius!!! :crazy:

[Iris]

51. And how about from the feet up camera work on the brunette?

creepy

[NewJeffCT]

52. I was thinking that myself

why did they do the slow pan from her feet up to her head?

[Blue_Tires]

31. "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful?"

lol...who remembers that radical line of 80s advertising?

[NewJeffCT]

36. I do

Kelly LeBrock, if I recall.

[Blue_Tires]

48. you are correct, sir!

[Darth_Kitten]

38. I can TOTALLY relate!

;) :evilgrin:

[KitchenWitch]

41. Maybe the little "princesses" would be more suited to road trips.

[philosophie_en_rose]

42. LEAVE THEM ALONE!

Won't people think of the poor oppressed, self-proclaimed pretty people! They never get everything they want and people are so, so mean.

[KatyaR]

46. Poor little princesses . . .

maybe Daddy should buy them an airline--then they wouldn't have to associate with the common folk.

:sarcasm:

Seriously, I don't think either one of them are anything extraordinary--and do they have their hair done up in ringlets? How Marie Antoinette of them . . . . :crazy:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

47. Southwest employees were extremely polite to me

and my family.

I never got the feeling it was because I was not good looking.

[Generic Brad]

49. Finally! An airline for uggos like me!

I have avoided flying for ages because I get so intimidated by all the hot young people.

[joeybee12]

53. Porn star wannabees?

I saw this on the travel section at MSNBC yesterday...first thing that came to my mind...can you imagine having to work with these 2...at a real job (if they actually had real jobs)??

[distantearlywarning]

56. Girls like that don't have jobs.

They go to college instead, where they torment their poor professors by being arrogant, deliberately ignorant, and self-entitled. We call students like this "snowflakes" (i.e., each one is wonderfully unique and special and certainly not like any other snowflake on campus).

[JVS]

54. Let me clear off a place for them to sit

*wipes face*

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

55. Perhaps their heads were too big to fit in the aisle.

"I'm too sexy for these handcuffs"
:rofl:

[BuelahWitch]

57. where's the obligatory "I'd hit it!" response?

Dammit people, is the Lounge not the Lounge any longer? Et tu Brutezez? :cry:
