Here is more from Fortune Magazine:Feeling disgusted & degraded after an @AlaskaAir flight where the passenger next to me made repeated lewd sexual remarks. The flight attendants told me he was a frequent flier, brushed off his behavior & kept giving him drinks. I guess his $ means more than our safety?

Randi Zuckerberg said on Twitter Wednesday night that Alaska Airlines workers allowed a man to continue making lewd comments to her during a flight from Los Angeles to Mazatlán, Mexico.
The founder and CEO of Zuckerberg Media, and whose brother is Mark Zuckerberg, posted a screenshot of a letter to Alaska Airlines executives and CEO.
“He started talking to me about touching himself, kept asking me if I fantasized about the female business colleague I was traveling with, rated and commented on the women’s bodies boarding the aircraft as they walked by us, and many more equally horrifying and offensive comments,” Zuckerberg wrote in the letter.
As an Alaskan this is somewhat troubling as Alaska Airlines actually has a very good reputation for service.
I have flown on the airline numerous times and it has always been as pleasant of an experience as somebody who truly hates to fly can have while cramped together in a metal tube with a hundred or so smelly, sweat stained passengers. (Oh, and that one crying baby who has been accompanying me on flights for the last twenty years or so.)
I don't know why people drink as much as they do on these flights, but I do know that a lot of the problems that people have while in the air are alcohol related.
Personally I would be all for making flights alcohol free, just like they are now free of the cigarette smoke that used to choke me to death decades ago.
Zuckerberg also posted this tweet which shows that Alaska Airlines heard her complaint and took appropriate action.
Perhaps they can also train their staff that the next time some belligerent drunk is harassing passengers on a flight that he should be cut off immediate and only served black coffee until he reaches his destination.UPDATE: I just got off the phone with two executives from @AlaskaAir who informed me that they are conducting an investigation and have temporarily suspended this passenger’s travel privileges. Thank you for taking this seriously.— Randi Zuckerberg (@randizuckerberg) November 30, 2017
