Kelowna couple escorted off flight by police after alleged racist incident
Description
August 16, 2022
Despite an apology by the airline, an incident that resulted in a Kelowna couple being escorted off a plane by police is under review. It all started when the woman asked another passenger to switch seats so she could sit next to her husband. As Jasmine King reports, the couple believes their race is what played a major factor.
