No different in my book than "joking" about a bomb. They should hold him financially responsible for the consequent canceled flight, at the very least.

Reminds me of People Express in the '80's. I used to fly them out of Syracuse Hancock. It was unique, to say the least. Everything cash, collected on board, and I mean everything, including the airfare. Well, almost everything. They didn't have pay toilets. I'll tell you what though, people just simply flocked to them. They may have been first in the U.S. airline industry to charge for checked bags. They might have been still around except for an ill-advised buying and acquisition spree. They wound up working almost entirely to service their debts. Too bad. Innovation and turning customer wants into viable revenue streams is something that's always good for any industry.
