Pakistani Twitter reacts to Airblue Couples with Hilarious Posts
In case you missed it, a couple was allegedly caught kissing on an Airblue flight, a private Pakistani airline, recently. The incident caused an uproar on the aircraft and on social media. Things got out of hand, and a passenger ended up complaining about the incident with the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), The Tribune reported. The event took place on PA-200, a Karachi-Islamabad flight, on May 20.
The eyewitnesses, who complained about the incident, told the publication that the couple was seated in the fourth row of the airline. At first, they began kissing each other. However, when another passenger complained about them, the air hostess requested the couple to stop their public display of affection. When they did not listen to her request, the air hostess provided the couple with a blanket to keep their activities under wraps. The complaint was filed by advocate Bilal Farooq Alvi, who was also onboard the aeroplane. He filed a complaint with the CAA against the airline for not taking action to stop the couple.
Advocate Bilal Farooq Alvi Filed the Complain:
Advocate Bilal Farooq Alvi, who was a passenger on the flight; later lodged a formal complaint with the CAA against the airline staff for not taking appropriate action against the couple. According to him, a member of the cabin crew gave the couple a blanket to cover up instead. But it’s unclear what appropriate action would have been in this situation considering they were airborne when the incident happened so it’s not like they could have been kicked off the plane. The incident sparked a massive debate on Twitter and divided the nation over whether two consenting adults should be allowed to publicly display affection in public or whether a kiss on a plane harmed the moral fabric of our society. In fact, #AirblueKissing was the number one trend on Twitter on Wednesday afternoon
