Major US Airline can now remove passengers for ‘barebeating’

The update introduces a new form of disruptive behavior that could get you booted, “Passengers who fail to use headphones while listening to audio or video content.”

This rule appears alongside other forms of disruptive behavior including boarding the plane intoxicated, and interfering with the flight attendants among the rest.

To help keep the peace at 35,000 feet, United Airlines now gives flight attendants clear authority to step in when noise becomes disturbance for the rest of the passengers.

According to the NBC News, the expectation already existed, but this time United Airlines just decided to make it more explicit.
