Delta Airlines responds to Youtube star, Adam Saleh's accusations" 'They sought to disrupt the cabin with provocative behavior' -

A popular YouTube prankster, Adam Saleh,  revealed through social media that he and a friend were kicked off a Delta flight after he spoke Arabic with his mother on the phone. According to the videos he shared on Twitter, after the call, some white passengers became uncomfortable and complained to the airline staff thereby leading to the ejection.

In a statement released after the incident, the airline stated that two people were removed from the flight after a disturbance in the cabin resulted in over 20 passengers expressing discomfort. An updated statement has now been released to address the accusation.

"Upon landing the crew was debriefed and multiple passenger statements collected. Based on the information collected to date, it appears the customers who were removed sought to disrupt the cabin with provocative behavior, including shouting. This type of conduct is not welcome on any Delta flight. While one, according to media reports, is a known prankster who was video recorded and encouraged by his traveling companion, what is paramount to Delta is the safety and comfort of our passengers and employees. It is clear these individuals sought to violate that priority."

Saleh however insists that Delta was wrong to kick them and are trying to do damage control now.
