A union boss in the US has said a discussion about whether flight attendants should be issued with tasers needs to happen again.
Sara Nelson, head of the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA (AFA-CWA) union, which represents nearly 50,000 flight attendants across 19 airlines, was speaking on CNN about the recent case of a United Airlines passenger who assaulted a flight attendant, tampered with an emergency exit, and threatened to “kill every man on this plane”.
