Widow Sues To Make Airline Travel More Tedious
We all know about the long lines that await when we go to the airport to catch a flight, but a recent widow is suing
to make sure airlines check your IDs as you leave the plane, too:
After the plane landed at Chicago O'Hare International Airport on April 13, 2005, passengers and flight crew disembarked and the jet was taken to another gate for cleaning. Workers then discovered the bathroom was locked from the inside and found Matsuo's body -- about two hours after the jet landed.
"How could you lose a passenger?" Watts, who did not fly with her husband that day, told The Indianapolis Star. "If I was somewhere on that plane, I would hope someone would notice."
Oh, sure, she's not suing for the express goal of lengthening the disembark time or making it more likely that you'll miss your connecting flights; she wants the money. But be assured, gentle reader, this is what you'll come to know as a result.
