Airline investigates after spat between flight attendants captured on ESPN anchor's TikTok

An airline has launched an internal investigation after a spat between two flight attendants was documented by an ESPN anchor on TikTok and Twitter. ESPN's Ashley Brewer said the disagreement between the SkyWest flight attendants on Saturday's flight from Los Angeles to Houston came after a woman in first class asked if she could give up her seat to a coach passenger so that she could sit by her husband. A male flight attendant said yes, but a female flight attendant said no and that it is against the rules, Brewer said in a TikTok. While the first-class passenger was fine with the decision, the disagreement between the flight attendants only got worse, according to Brewer. Plane tracker FlightAware recorded that flight 4860, being operated by SkyWest for American Eagle, landed one hour and two minutes later than scheduled. In a statement, SkyWest said it "is aware of reports regarding a flight attendant issue" involving the flight. "We regret the delay this caused for our passengers and apologize for any inconvenience," the airline said. "We hold all our employees to the highest standards of professionalism and are conducting an internal investigation related to this flight."<br/>
