    I read about this earlier... that sounds completely bizarre. If it's true, that's crazy. I really don't see how they could take on extra passengers though...

      What an asshole. I hope the airline fights him and he loses.

        Are we all reading the same article? He was forced to fly in the bathroom? I'm sure that is an exaggeration... but come on... that makes him an asshole?

              Well that's a bizarre lawsuit but he's probably in the right. Was his "extreme humiliation" worth $2M? Most likely not.

                  That's what I was thinking. If he made the whole story up it would fall apart pretty quick.

                  If he paid for a ticket and was allowed to board the plane when there was no seat available then the airline fucked up big time and should compensate him.

                    Maybe it was a toilet of mass destruction.

                    No, seriously, I'm guessing that he didn't have a ticket for the flight but he needed to fly anyways.

                            Relax ... when it's all done, he'll probably just get a free voucher for a future flight plus maybe a couple of discount coupons.

                              could be , it could also be that he paid full price for a ticket after they promised him a seat , they then took the seat back from him mid-flight forcing him to sit in the bathroom.

                              So he went to a lawyer to sue and rightly so , he was promised a seat , and didnt get it. at the very least they owe him a plane ticket.

                              Now of course a lawyer is going to say " hey you need to be compensated for all the other people who have been ripped off"

                              theres lots of ways to look at it i suppose. $2 million is alot , but to the company its peanuts. so it would be like suing you for $1

                                i don't think that is a $2mil suit, but he definitely at least deserves free jetblue for a long ass while

                                i can't belive the jump seat was available and they mad him sit in the toilet, hahahaha

                                  If this is true, then the airline is in WAY more trouble with the FAA then some money lawsuit. It says clearly in the regs all passengers must have a seat with a seatbelt.

                                  If true, Jetblue is in deep shit. Sounds liek BS to me

                                    That's insane and some of the replies in this thread are insane.

                                    He could of let him sit in the jump seat but he forced him to hold up in the tiny toilet. That's not safe and probably against company policy. I've been told to get out of the bathroom and take my seat when turbulence was expected.

                                    He should win. If they put me in the bathroom I'd be like wtf too... Another reason jetBlue sucks donkey balls.

                                      I doubt that a pilot would willingly allow a toilet to take the place of a passenger seat...Pilots are generally pretty fucking clever..

                                        Nice to know that you will sit in the toilet if we don't have space for you.

                                        I would sue them for as much as I could get, they fucked up and airlines that carry people around need to be made to be more responsible. They were flying in turbulence with a passenger sitting on the toilet without a seat belt.

                                          Let's see - they bent the rules so he could get on this flight, and now he's suing because he didn't get the seat he wanted. At least one person's getting fired over this, and it's not this prick.

                                                    Okay, I'm not reading the whole thing ... so when did he find out he had to sit on the toilet?

                                                    If before flight, and he boarded anyhow, then he's a pylon with a much weaker case.
                                                    If during flight, he simply should have refused citing regulations (that are surely public knowledge) against it ... and then the lawsuit is probably his, though $2M is ludicrous.

                                                      They would have had to land the plane before I got out of my seat to sit in the bathroom. I don't know about 2mil but he should get something.

                                                      It is pretty funny though

                                                        Doesn't ring true. Airlines can't give passengers the jump seat, and crew sit in them all the time. One of my best friends works for United, and if she decided halfway across the Atlantic that she didn't feel like sitting in the jump seat to the destination, it wouldn't matter.

                                                          she offered a regular seat to the guy, the stewardess was not working , she was just flying as a regular passenger, she decided to give up her seat and take the jump seat instead because she is an employee and can take the jump seat.

                                                          halfway thru the flight she wanted her comfy seat back. thus forcing the man to get up , he then suggested he could use the jump seat , they told him no he couldnt because it's employees only.

                                                            how come he take the jump seat? didn't he know that its not right for him to be there? I mean its nice for the stewardess that is a passenger that time to give up her comfy seat but it is much better if both of them as passenger can have the right seat for the whole flight...

                                                                          halfway thru the flight she wanted her comfy seat back. thus forcing the man to get up , he then suggested he could use the jump seat , they told him no he couldnt because it's employees only.
                                                                          No, she wasn't flying as a regular passenger, if she was, they would not have put her in the jump seat, period. If she had paid for a ticket, full price, then she was booked into a seat and that would be that. If she was flying standby -- which 99.9% of airline people do (because the ticket is dirt cheap) -- then she gets what she gets, and if the airline has a revenue passenger, they get priority for seats over standby employees. The only exception would be an employee being moved from one point to another by the airline -- in which case the airline assigns them regular seats at no cost, and that's where they sit for the flight.

                                                                          Like I said, one of my best friends flies for United, and the FAA has rules, before the airlines do, about who can sit where. On United, American and USAir (just to name three that I am sure of), employees are not allowed to standby into first class -- or the jumpseat -- if they are wearing jeans. Company policy.

                                                                          I use companion standby tickets when I'm going somewhere and I don't care when I get there, or I am off on a lark -- sometimes I get first class, sometimes I get the back of the bus. Non-employees aren't allowed to sit in jump seats. And no one is allowed to sit in a toilet.

They were flying in turbulence with a passenger sitting on the toilet without a seat belt.
                                                                                Yeah and im SURE he wears a seatbelt everytime he drives in a car, driver , passenger.

                                                                                "At one point, the airplane experienced turbulence and Mutlu sat on the toilet seat without a seat belt, causing him "tremendous fear," the lawsuit said."

                                                                                  I hope this guy gets payed more then 2 mill, companies like this should be shut down.
