Please Store All Gucci Bags Under the Seat In Front Of You

A passenger on a Cathay Pacific plane in Hong Kong, bound for Tokyo, delayed the flight for more than an hour because she refused to stow her Gucci handbag under her seat for takeoff. The flight attendants tried to convince the woman, who refused even after airport security guards were called in and threatened to arrest her for disrupting the flight. After a long argument, the woman finally agreed to disembark from the plane, Gucci bag in hand, to the applause of the other passengers, who were eager to get the plane off the ground. "'It's not my fault, it was them who were too stubborn,' she shouted as she was leaving."
