    The flight crew asked the passenger to put her high-end handbag under the seat to abide by basic safety regulations.

    However, the woman, who was flying economy, refused to do so and insisted on leaving the bag on the seat next to her.

    Airplane etiquette rules debated: Which ones do you agree with?

    She subsequently started playing on her cell phone and ignored cabin crew

    Her actions prompted the pilot to return to the boarding gate, where police entered the aircraft and detained the Louis-lugging lady.

    Fellow passengers were heard cheering in the viral video as the woman was escorted off the plane.

    Viewers of the clip were divided over the incident, with some saying the cabin crew escalated the situation.

    “The flight attendant could have offered her a bag to put her handbag in,” a Douyin user declared. “Is it really necessary to waste an hour and kick her off the plane?”

    However, others slammed the selfish passenger.

    “The flight attendant did not insist on the rule for nothing,” one raged. “The woman should value her safety and that of other passengers rather than the bag.”
