A Delta Airlines flight passenger was removed from a plane in Miami<\/a> after refusing to end a phone call before takeoff, causing a delay and enraging other travelers.<\/p>\n

The incident happened Monday on a flight from Miami to Atlanta, the airline confirmed to Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

Crew members repeatedly told the passenger to hang up while the plane was taxiing, but the person refused to get off the phone and escalated the disruptive behavior<\/a>, the airline said.<\/p>\n

“The safety of our\u00a0customers and crew\u00a0comes before all else,\u00a0and\u00a0Delta\u00a0has zero tolerance for disruptive behavior,” Delta said in a statement to Fox News Digital.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We apologize\u00a0to our customers\u00a0for\u00a0this\u00a0experience\u00a0and delay in\u00a0their\u00a0travels.”<\/p>\n

The plane returned to the gate, where the passenger was removed.<\/p>\n

The flight then departed<\/a> about an hour later than scheduled, according to flight tracker Cirium.<\/p>\n

Footage of the incident shows other passengers voicing frustration as the situation unfolded, with some urging the individual to be considerate of others on board.<\/p>\n

“Get off the plane,” one passenger could be heard chanting.<\/p>\n

Flight attendants later informed travelers that everyone would need to deplane.<\/p>\n

“So we\u2019re all supposed to listen, and he doesn\u2019t?” another passenger said.<\/p>\n

“Just get him off the plane, he’s in the front row,” yet another person added.<\/p>\n

Gary Leff, a Texas-based travel industry expert and author of the blog “View From the Wing,”<\/a> told Fox News Digital that passengers are required to follow crew instructions.<\/p>\n

“FAA rules require passengers to follow airline procedures, which generally require airplane mode once a plane\u2019s doors are closed,” Leff said.<\/p>\n

He noted that while a single phone is unlikely to interfere with aircraft systems, concerns remain about multiple devices transmitting signals at once.<\/p>\n

“No one thinks a single iPhone<\/a> is going to break a 787,” Leff said. “The concern \u2026 is that operating together and at scale many devices used by all passengers could create these issues.”<\/p>\n

“I do have to wonder, though, about a passenger who just refuses<\/a> to get off their call,” Leff said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“That\u2019s going to end badly.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
