The incident comes two weeks after a United Airlines passenger was dragged from his seat and off a plane by Chicago aviation police. United was widely criticized on social media and by industry professionals for the conflicting statements it put out afterward, initially siding with its employees and appearing to blame the passenger.
Flight attendant: 'Hit me, hit me'
The video of the American Airlines encounter starts off with a woman sobbing as she holds a baby.
"Just give me back my stroller please," she says tearfully.
A male passenger stands up and intervenes, apparently upset with how the woman's situation was handled. He tells the flight attendant,
"Hey bud, hey bud. You do that to me, and I'll knock you flat."
The flight attendant tells the male passenger to stay out of it, then later taunts him to "hit me, hit me ... bring it on."
From the video, it's unclear why the woman is distraught. Surain Adyanthaya, who posted the video to Facebook on Friday, said that before the footage, the flight attendant had "violently" taken the stroller, hitting the woman in the process and narrowly missing her baby.
Adyanthaya later posted the airline had "escorted the mother and her kids off the flight" and let the flight attendant back on.
