Women Causes ‘Riot’ Over Missing Airline Meal, Delta Eliminates Fee & More
Highlights and headlines from around the web:
An Air New Zealand passenger was met by police in Shanghai when her flight from Aukland landed on Thursday after she nearly caused a riot when the airline didn’t have her special meal. Definitely the embodiment of hangry (hungry + angry).
Police boarded my flight in Shanghai because a woman nearly caused a riot when they didn’t have the meal she wanted. Definition of Hangry.
