Real Life Stories of People Who Took One For The Team

Missing the Wedding

My friend was on a flight to his brother’s wedding from Switzerland to Jamaica with a layover in the Dominican Republic. His entire family and friends were on that flight, like 50-60 people.

They got drunk on airplane wine, and 6-7 (not my friend) snuck into the bathroom and started smoking cigarettes, 2-3 at a time. The crew (obviously) found out, and came to the seats and reprimanded the group.

They asked who smoked a cigarette in the bathroom, they know it was one of them. The captain came out and said if no one admit it he’d kick them all off the plane on their layover. None of them moved. He was ready to kick them all off until my friend got up and took one for the team.

He got kicked off of the flight, and missed his brother’s wedding for it, while all the others had an absolute blast of a wedding. Oh, he also had to pay a $5000 fine, had to rebook his flight, spend 7 nights in a hotel in the Dominical Republic, and he’s blacklisted from that airline for 10 years.
