Video shows airport attendant punching passenger holding a child

Cell phone cameras recorded the exact moment Saturday when passengers of EasyJet Flight 2122 lost what was left of their patience. It was 10:17 pm in Terminal 2 of Nice Côte d’Azur International in southern France. In an instant, with a shove and a jab, the stressed-out travellers seemed to embody the world’s collective frustration with the state of air travel, banding together at the departure gate to voice their anger over still waiting for their flight, which was scheduled to depart for London at 10:35 a.m. It was not clear if the man hit by an airport attendant was hurt, but that moment epitomised how the patience of passengers is tested at every turn, from malfunctioning ticket kiosks to painfully slow lines at security to cramped seats in coach. <br/>
