conrad hilton iii\'s meltdown at 35,000 feet renews talk of the perplexing phenomenon of air rage

When it comes to throwing temper,
The tanfinneran at 35,000 feet Conrad Hilton III is not there.
Two decades ago, finnaran, an investment banker in New York, was drunk and lost. of-
On a United Airlines flight from Brazil to New York, he dropped his pants in first class and urinated on the food truck.
Without a real act of terrorism, it would be difficult to get rid of that nasty anger.
But the 20-year-old Hiltonyear-
According to reports, the old brother of celettinte Paris Hilton dropped enough F-
Bombs and other unpleasantness, and punched enough on a British Airways flight from London to Los Angeles last summer to get himself arrested on Wednesday on federal charges of interfering with the crew. (
British Airways is a division of IAG. )
It is worth noting, however, that if convicted, Hilton will face 20 years in prison and Finneran is convicted on similar charges and he has served only about two years.
He allegedly evaded most of his time.
Plus an hour flight, he also made the ugly headlines around the world that once followed his sister.
Therefore, if only a few days are discussed, Air anger once again becomes a major topic of public discussion. What causes it?
Why does it seem that only celebrities and wealthy people are involved?
Why can\'t you stop?
How common is it?
When answering the first three questions, a lot of speculation is needed. pop-
Psychology and imagination
More space than we have here.
This is the fourth question.
How common is Air anger?
This is the hardest question to answer.
Because no one knows exactly.
First of all, it must be stipulated that the number of flights reported for air rage incidents is a small part of nearly 28 million commercial flights taking off each year around the world.
Nevertheless, the number of flights affected by air rage incidents-regardless of the number --
Very big.
One of the recent efforts to calculate the frequency of air rage incidents comes from the International Air Transport Association, the global trading group to which most airlines in the world belong.
Of the 2012 International Air Transport Associations, last year\'s air rage soared from 6,000 in 2007 to 500.
But how reliable is this number?
After all, in 2000, Pat friend, who was the head of the flight attendant Association, the world\'s largest flight attendant union, claimed that there were about 4,000 such incidents in the United States alone each year. S. -based airlines.
She made the claim in an article published in the journal Aerospace, published by the National Aerospace Museum, which itself is part of Smithsonian.
The problem with defining the size of the Air anger problem is that there is no standard rule as to when and even how to report Air anger incidents.
To this end, there is not even a standard definition to define what an air rage event is.
There is no doubt that many people who travel regularly record enough time in the air to observe a passenger crashing in the air, including screaming, shouting, profanity and some other very ugly acts.
You don\'t even need to fly so many planes to fly the unfortunate experience with one or more loud, pesky drunks who are determined to disrupt the peace of others.
It\'s not uncommon to sit around rude or self
Important passengers, who seem determined to get rid of their frustration or claim that they have an advantage over a flight attendant or two.
But does such behavior constitute Air anger? Probably not.
Los Angeles International Airport reported that the airline itself was not eager to report their customers, nor was it willing to report Border Air anger cases that did not require police intervention after the plane landed.
There is no reason for this outrageous act.
But while you may think that airlines will be eager to \"protect\" their passengers and brands by taking action in this situation, many airline managers are concerned that their brands will be compromised, if they take public action against bad actors, these headlines will certainly follow up.
As a result, many people only report incidents in which they take corporate or criminal action against them.
In addition, paperwork and follow-up
The investigation process itself is daunting enough to help discourage airline employees from reporting mild-to-
Moderate cage of air rage.
Therefore, the line between the shameless behavior of the traveler and the real air anger is inherently vague.
But, if possible, most airline flight attendants have been trained to prevent passengers from crossing the border.
To be sure, the intensity and effectiveness of this training have been significantly different over the years-from operators to operators.
But in reality, they all offer some training on how to discover and deal with passengers who may potentially be in danger from unhappiness.
They were taught some fairly obvious, even simple tactics: to attract upset passengers in a way of concern, and to invite them by telling their stories to sympathetic listeners\"

Provide them with free food and drinks;

The cockpit staff rarely venture into the cabin to help, and this can still happen at times, as is the case with Hilton.
When airlines feel the need to calm down passengers, they also train their attendants to take a condescending stance.
They make orders and make threats that, if possible, may be prohibited from entering the carrier in the hope of intimidating noisy passengers to file.
But when those less aggressive tactics fail, the waiters in post 9
