You reached me in sunny Fl -it was at least 75 today -maybe warmer.

Flight left on time maybe a little early -when the stewardess said for everyone to turn off their phones and tunes or electronic stuff -one guy in row 7 or so, decided to ignore her -she kept telling him and he kept back talking her.

She then told him she wasn't going to have a problem at 32000 feet and if he wanted off she would take the plane back to the terminal. Those of us in the back couldn't hear what he said but she was trying to get him to listen and spoke loudly.

Then this window seat man said the guy in the middle threatened (?) him. The problem passenger was about 25 to 30. So the stewardess moved the guy in the middle seat over to another row. But the young man at the window continued to give her grief.

Sooooo she told the pilot to turn around and go back to the terminal and then we docked and a black man in a suit came onboard the plane along with two uniform security police and had the problem passenger get his ONLY bag from the overhead -and walked him off the plane.

The man who had been moved from the middle seat to another row -went back to his row and now took the window seat....hummmm? LOL

My row mates and I asked the stewardess what happened and she told us the watered down version. Never a dull moment.

My row mates were my age and on their way to Miami to pick up a three day cruise. He had retired from the Auto Industry and lost all his savings and retirement and was now back working at a sales job for 48 hours a week. She has two part time jobs. Life goes on. I would like to go on a cruise someday, any advice? They said go on the least expensive cruise -it is all good -just go!

We were about 45 min. late to FT Myers (RSW). Everyone was relived the stewardess took the precautions BEFORE we took off. Nobody wanted trouble at 32000 ft!

My parents are fine and had no idea the plane was late -and they remembered I was visiting!!!

I hear it is snowing in the Northeast, and the Eagles lost= OH well..........-Thinking of youall. /
