Entitled Delta passenger causes plane to return to gate after refusing to hang up phone before takeoff

An entitled traveler forced a Delta plane to return to the gate because she refused to hang up her phone before takeoff — prompting outraged passengers to chant “get off the plane.” 

Shannon Marie Harris, 46, was asked by flight attendants to end her phone call after boarding a Delta Air Lines flight from Miami International Airport to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport on Monday, April 27.

But she refused and became “belligerent” just before takeoff, leading the pilots to turn the plane back around to the gate, where everyone on board was asked to deboard after she wouldn’t leave as asked, according to WSB-TV.

Harris and another passenger, who was not identified, were taken into custody.

A traveler on board captured the moment dozens of travelers groaned in unison after the pilot’s announcement that they would all have to deboard.

As frustration boiled over, passengers began chanting “get off the plane” at Harris, footage shows.

“So we’re all supposed to listen and [she] doesn’t?” one flyer asked aloud.

“Please be considerate,” another chided.

Flight attendants repeatedly had to tell passengers to “remain calm,” according to the clip.

Harris was charged with trespassing and later released on a $500 bond.

Delta flight 1323 took off about an hour late due to the chaos.
