AVIATION

14 NOVEMBER 2020: NEWARK, NEW JERSEY

Amani Al-Khatahtbeh, 28, founder of the website MuslimGirl, was removed from an American Airlines flight before take-off from Newark International Airport to Charlotte, because a fellow passenger felt ‘uncomfortable’ with her presence on the flight. Al-Khatahtbeh and the fellow passenger had an argument during check-in as the passenger accused Al-Khatahtbeh of cutting the line and that he should go first as he was registered for TSA pre-check. The passenger then cut in front of Al-Khatahtbeh.
