Airport Employees Throw Hands At Spirit Airlines Check-In Counter With Customer After He Squared Up

If you square up on an airport employee at the Spirit Airlines check-in counter at the BWI Airport in Baltimore, you had better be prepared to take on everyone at the counter.

An upset customer found that out the hard way this week after a heated argument turned physical.  The customer decided the situation was no longer going to be resolved with words, so he squared up on one of the employees and got ready to throw hands.

As he did, a second employee entered with his hands raised, ready for action.  Then a third who had apparently been keeping an eye on the situation, and was in agreement with the customer that the time for talking was over.

He wound up before swinging wildly at the customer and narrowly missing sending him into an alternate universe.  There was no going back at that point.

All hell had broken loose at the Spirit Airlines check-in counter, and it was on.  The customer had bitten off much more than he could chew as a total of four employees got in on the action and took turns getting shots in on him.

The Airport Employees Delivered Swift And Decisive Customer Service 

The four on one brawl didn't last long, but there was a clear winner and that is the customer service at this particular airport.  If you've got an issue, the folks at the Spirit Airlines check-in counter are going to dedicate several employees to address it.

According to TMZ, officers did respond to the incident which took place late Tuesday afternoon.  There were five people involved, with one of them suffering minor injuries - you can probably guess who that was.

A rep for Spirit Airlines told TMZ that the four employees were from a third-party service they use.  They've all been suspended by the company pending an investigation into the fight.

Spirit added that they don't tolerate violence of any kind.  They plan to take appropriate action once the investigation is completed.

Let this serve as a friendly reminder that squaring up on someone in an airport isn't a great idea.  Your fellow passengers don't want to deal with it, and there's a good chance the employees aren't having any of it either.
