“Safety is always our No. 1 priority and while unruly passenger incidents are rare, there is no place for them on our aircraft or in our airports,” the statement said.
Officials with the Federal Aviation Administration have been tracking reports of unruly passengers. Authorities said such reports have dropped since the agency launched its zero-tolerance campaign against unruly passenger behavior in January, although they remain high.
