TikTok user @erin_wright_ is sharing her story about the time she found out she was banned from flying with American Airlines, and she has everyone hooked. On August 9, 2024, Erin Wright posted a TikTok video explaining the strange reason she was banned by American Airlines due to a mix-up, which led to a delay in her flight and cost her $1,400 that they refused to refund.
Erin Wright begins her TikTok video by saying that in June 2024, she was supposed to take an American Airlines flight to New Orleans for her sister’s bachelorette party, but was unable to check in on the airline’s website multiple times, even though she had already booked the ticket. She then tried to check in at the airport kiosks, but received an error message. Concerned she would miss her flight, she asked the airport staff, who also received a similar message. Then, one thing led to another, and her issue was redirected to various sources, most of whom refused to tell her why she was banned. After a series of redirections, Erin finally learned that she had been banned from flying with American Airlines because she had sexual relations with a man on the flight while being intoxicated. But there’s a catch: Erin is a lesbian, which means it’s impossible that it was her, and the airline just got her mixed up with someone else. In her video, Erin emphasizes how outrageous the situation was, condemns it, and says she needs the money she lost because of the airline’s mistake.
