Too many of these fucking Pinoys are running around in Singapore too. Fucking cheebye buys one lousy Business class ticket and expects the flight attendants to wait on her hand and feet. Must recline her seat for her and open her food for her? WTF? They might as well assign one personal FA for her. The cheapskate daughter go and seat in economy and go up into the Business class section all the time to help the fucking mother and not happy flight attendants tell her to go back to her seat. She should buy a business class ticket herself. The business class passengers paid so they don't have to mix with the cattle in economy, but this cow likes to wonder into their world. Chey.

United Airlines staff 'forced frail grandma, 94, out of £2,800 Business seat into Economy for 16-hour flight'


United Airlines staff forced a frail 94-year-old grandma to leave her £2,800 (CAD 4665) Business Class seat and sit in discomfort in Economy, her family have claimed.
Paz Orquiza was travelling from Los Angeles back to Melbourne, Australia, after visiting relatives.
Her granddaughter Marianne Santos Aguilar said Mrs Orquiza has a number of disabilities including severe arthritis .
Her relatives had all chipped in to buy her a Business class seat with United in the hope of making the 16-hour journey more comfortable.
But Ms Aguilar claims her grandma was left "in tears" due to her treatment by United staff.
She claimed staff would not allow Mrs Orquiza's daughter Rose, who was also on the flight in Economy class, to help her with tasks such as reclining her seat or opening her food unless she paid for a Business Class ticket as well.
Neither would staff themselves help the fragile passenger, the family claim.
They claim they were left with no choice but to move Mrs Orquiza out of Business and into Economy so her daughter could assist her, despite having paid for extra comfort.

According to Ms Aguilar: "My aunt tried to comfort my grandmother, who was in tears, and was horrified to see how much pain she had to endure during this flight.
"Upon arrival to Australia, my grandma's legs had swollen, she suffered from a stiff neck and her whole body ached.
"She is still in great distress and pain from this ordeal."
The family have filed a complaint with United and say they were eventually offered £400 in travel vouchers and a refund of £690.
But the family remain unhappy.
Ms Aguilar added: "Our family is heartbroken that this painful plane ride back to Melbourne will be the last memory of our trip for my grandma, and this has ruined an otherwise incredible family reunion.
"I want a guarantee that what happened to my grandma will never happen to another disabled or elderly person again, and that we can stand together to stop discrimination towards the disabled and elderly."
