Or you might get kicked off the plane because a crew member thinks you have H1N1. That's exactly what happened to a mother and her daughter on a United Airlines flight from Tampa back home to Honolulu. After returning from the restroom, the mother was told by the flight crew to gather her belongings and exit the plane. According to KITV in Hawaii, "United Airlines' policy allows the crew to determine if someone who appears visibly ill should be allowed to fly." If a flight crew can remove a passenger from a plane because they think that person might have swine flu, does that mean we have to get a doctor's note before we fly? No word yet on whether UA's policy is becoming the industry standard in the Pacific, nor whether passengers have been subjected to similar treatment on flights to or from Guam. But we'll keep you posted. Read KITV's "Woman Kicked Off Flight In H1N1 Scare."
