Watch: Woman Loses It During Flight, Claims to Be ‘President’ While Ordering Plane to Turn Back Over Phone She Left
In a recent incident on Frontier Airlines, a passenger caused a scene after forgetting her cell phone at the gate during a flight from San Diego to Las Vegas. When the flight crew refused to turn the plane around for her to retrieve it, she claimed to be “the president” and said she owned “seven continents.” Her outburst, which included accusations of racial discrimination and threats directed at fellow passengers and flight attendants, was recorded and shared on TikTok. Despite her claims and escalating rhetoric, she was ultimately told that the plane could not return, leading to her expressing dissatisfaction and continuing her rant in front of amused onlookers. The incident has garnered media attention, although it remains unclear if it led to flight delays or cancellations.
As tactics for getting one’s way on an airline go, a recent passenger on Frontier Airlines tried the approach of saying she was the president, and when that did not work, that she owned seven continents.
Spoiler alert: No luck.
The episode on a flight from San Diego to Las Vegas was, of course, recorded and d on TikTok. The woman’s problem was that she had left her cell phone behind at the gate, and the flight crew would not turn the plane around so she could retrieve it.
For those with difficulty hearing the rant, elocution among the irate being what it is, the New York Post provided some highlights.
“If I was white and in a suit, you would stop the f***ing plane,” the woman said. “Laugh now, I am the president of this whole godd*** country. Watch, see the f***ing TV news.”

Later, she told a flight attendant she was “an affirmed sovereign ruler here in the government.”
“Seven continents I own,” she said.
Race came into the rant.
“Yes, I need to get off this plane and I’m gonna tell you straight up don’t you ever come against nobody because of their skin color again,” she said.
Passengers who were filming or giggling came in for a dose of ire, the U.K.’s Daily Mail noted.
“Keep laughing, watch you’re a** be right on a boat. We shipping people out just for a nice group of expedition. What comes around goes around. It’s time now,” she said.
“Keep laughing, watch what happens – you’ll be expired, just the like battery on your watch,” she said.
When told the plane could not go back, she called the reply a “lie from the pit of hell.”
The gambit of an accusation against Frontier was also tried.
“You had enough time. I seen Frontier do illegal stuff several times. I’ve been riding for the last eight years,” she said.
The video ended with the woman sitting down as the flight attendant walked away.
“It’s unclear if the flight was delayed or canceled due to her outburst, as an aviation blog claims a flight on October 12 on that route arrived 30 minutes late, while Frontier canceled a similar flight the next day for unknown reasons,” the Daily Mail reported.
