LAS VEGAS (WJW) – A woman who was returning to America on a flight from the Dominican Republic was arrested when she landed in Las Vegas.

According to a criminal complaint, Ketty Dilone was on an American Airlines flight from Punta Cana, with a connection in Charlotte on the way to Las Vegas, on Tuesday, September 16.

According to the criminal complaint, on the flight from Charlotte to Las Vegas, Dilone walked down the aisle yelling and reportedly threatened multiple flight attendants.

“Due to Dilone’s disruptive and threatening behavior, she had to be restrained in her seat with zip ties and duct tape,” a press release stated.

She allegedly kicked a flight attendant causing the flight attendant to fall.

Dilone faces one-count of interference with a flight crew and one-count of assault.

The maximum penalty is 20 years.

Why do so many people think somehow they're going to "come out on top" of a physical altercation with a flight attendant? Don't they know the first things they'll see at disembarkation is two cops and a pair of cuffs?

The worst are the ones who behave so violently the flight has to put down en route, because many of them get sued by the airline for its additional costs.

Going to start travelling with duct tape and zip ties after watching that video of a guy trying to kick out his window and the attendants doing nothing. 🛫🛠️
