Passenger Hits Frontier Flight Attendant with Intercom Phone

A passenger on a Frontier Airlines flight from Denver to Tampa was arrested after allegedly hitting a flight attendant with an intercom phone. The passenger was cited with assault and released. This incident comes just weeks after a passenger on a separate Frontier Airlines flight was "voted" off the plane by fellow travelers after a verbal altercation broke out before the aircraft took off. The FAA has imposed a stricter legal enforcement policy against unruly airline passengers after seeing an uptick in "troubling incidents."
