Caught in the Air: The Rowdy Incident on a Philly‑Miami Flight

Picture this: a 22‑year‑old flyer named Maxwell Berry turns a routine domestic trip into a circus act. While on a flight from Philadelphia to Miami, he allegedly grabbed two flight attendants and knocked the third right back in the face.

The Roll‑out of the “Human Zip‑Tie”

After the chaos, passengers swooped in to calm the situation. The airline’s crew and fellow travelers even duct‑taped the unruly passenger to his seat, making sure he couldn’t spread mischief further.

What the allegations say

  • Groped breasts of one flight attendant.
  • Touched the buttocks of a second.
  • Pulled a punch squarely in the face of a third attendant.

When they finally made it to Miami International Airport, law‑enforcement swooped in. Max was taken into custody on battery charges, according to the airport’s arrest report.

Airline’s Take

Frontier Airlines fired back with a statement: “We place the utmost value, respect, concern and support for all of our flight attendants, including those who were assaulted on this flight.”

All in all, it was a flight that will probably go down in the history books of airline drama—though hopefully not for the airline’s good reputation. The incident is still under investigation, and if you’re flying with Frontier, just remember: keep your hands to yourself, folks!
