In video footage captured by another passenger two women are seeing throwing blows and then falling into a row. Another woman tries to interject but is unlucky in her attempt. Another patron tweeted live from the fight saying “Nothing like a morning Fight Club as tempers flared on LAS-CLT flight today….So much for social distancing!” she wrote. American Airlines has released a statement on the matter and confirmed the anti-masker knew what the guidelines were saying she “failed to comply with our mandatory face-covering policy after boarding the aircraft prior to departure”.

The travel brand detailed its stance further. “American, like other U.S. airlines, began requiring customers to wear a face-covering while onboard aircraft beginning May 11. We have since strengthened our policy to require face coverings be worn at airports and onboard, and announced in June that we may deny future travel for customers who refuse to wear a face-covering for the duration of this requirement.” WSOC-TV reports that the anti-masker is currently blocked from flying.
