Family Kicked off Jet Blue Flight due to Cake: Or Why People Need to Film One Another if there is an Air Altercation

Now these are some wildly different stories from both sides.
JetBlue has pointed blame squarely on the Burkes. According to a spokesperson from the airline, the family stored the cake in a compartment reserved for emergency equipment. “The customers became agitated, cursed and yelled at the crew and made false accusations about a crew member’s fitness to fly,” stated JetBlue spokesman Doug McGraw.
Burke sees things a little differently, claiming no one in his family raised their voices and they were never told why they had to leave the plane. As Burke described to ABC 7, it appears the situation escalated when the flight crew couldn’t agree on what to do with the cake.
Screaming and yelling versus no one raising their voices. Maybe it is time for someone to invent a very small blue tooth camera that can be worn to clear up these kinds of things. Its a sad place where this kind of thing becomes necessary though.
