Ohhh yes I would be suing too!
A New York man is suing the airline Jet Blue for $2 million after he was forced to sit in the airplane’s bathroom for hours during a cross-country flight. Gokhan Mutlu was flying standby from San Diego to New York. He was initially given a seat, but during the flight the pilot told him he would have to give up his seat to a flight attendant. The only other available seat on the packed flight was on the toilet.
When Mutlu expressed reluctance to go sit in the bathroom, the pilot, who was not named in the lawsuit, told him that “he was the pilot, that this was his plane, under his command that (Mutlu) should be grateful for being on board,” the lawsuit said.
