Flight Attendants Want to Regulate In Flight Porn


American Airlines Flight Attendants want to block adult websites on flights that will offer Wi Fi access. They fear that letting passengers to look at any website online “might actually endanger passengers”. Are you kidding me? Not only is the flight attendants job is to give me attitude when I need another pillow, but now they want to dictate to me what they might find “adult” and what they don’t. If I watch porn, my hands will be busy and I wont be able to push the Attendants Button for more nuts.

But American Airlines isn't going to comply just yet. When the company unveiled the expanded Internet access, it anticipated complaints about allowing porn on board. At the time, company representatives said they would ask flight attendants to deal with misbehavior on board as they always have: by asking passengers to move to a different seat or to put away the offending material.

Passengers pay $12.95 to use the Wi-Fi service, which for now is only available on certain flights connecting New York to Los Angeles, San Francisco and Miami. Only flights using Boeing 767-200 aircraft will have the service.
