Anna Dugan has been identified as the Delta Airlines passenger who gained notoriety for a video taken on October 12 showing her acting aggressively against another passenger. She then expressed regret for her actions, which she acknowledged weren’t “proper.”
“I am sorry that I got so upset. However, I felt like I needed to…stick up for myself. I know I need to work on my emotions, but they weren’t right either.”
The argument began when woman refused to put her dog in a carrier when instructed to do so by flight attendants on a Delta Airlines aircraft from Atlanta to New York. Dugan is heard insulting flight attendants and yelling expletives at them in the incident video. She tossed a bottle at the other passenger when she learned they were filming her.

Internet users are still sceptical of her apology’s sincerity. Many claim that she only offered a sincere apology when she was discovered.
The 32-year-old Las Vegas bartender got into a fight with the flight crew and several of the other passengers last week. The woman erupted and began yelling expletives at the flight attendant who stayed cool and collected throughout when she was requested to put her dog in a carrier.

The woman, who had her dog on her lap, retaliated when approached by the attendant and said:
“My dog was sitting on my lap. I put him in the bag! He’s in the bag! I didn’t f****** do anything to you guys. Because you couldn’t let me dog sit on my f****** lap!”
