Tired Jim Belushi Has Alleged In-Flight Fight
It seems Jim Belushi woke up on the wrong side of the "bed" this week during an American Airlines flight to Las Vegas.
According to
TMZ, when a flight attendant tried to wake Belushi during the plane's descent, the actor proceeded to start a verbal argument. Apparently, Belushi made a scene, forcing the captain to call tower control and request police presence at the Las Vegas gate.
Police said no crime occurred and let Belushi and the flight attendant go their separate ways.
"American Airlines could not have handled the situation better to ensure his safety. Next time he wants to take a 40-minute nap, he'll be booking American Airlines," his rep told
TMZ.

He will be booking on American Airlines?
So, he does agree with their safety policy.
Good.

The next time he flies, rather than sleep he should thank the Good Lord for allowing an asthetically challenged no talent hack to succeed.
btdt, don't drag the lord into your hate. he'll never win an oscar but he's got more talent than any of the reality idiots that the networks keep pushing.
There is no reason to be awake when the plane is desending.
As long as your seatback is up and your tray locked. The first bump will wake you up.

why else would the flight attendant try to wake him...you think they dont already know that? KOZ>>>KOZ>>>>KOZ>>>>>wake up
As a flight attendant I can state, unequivocally, if his was in the upright and locked position, his tray table was in the upright and locked position, and his seatbelt secured around him, there was NO need to awaken him. The fact that he was less than pleasant when awakened could be for a number of reasons. Not everyone wakes up happy and he may know, having flown many, many flights that it was unnecessary to awaken him, to name a couple of reasons. Regardless, it was "over the top" for the Captain to request police presence upon landing. Some flight attendants use poor judgement and others have an over-inflated ego and ridiculous need to flaunt their perceived "power" over paying passengers. During descent, if an emergency landing became imminent, he would have been awoken by the emergency instructions given via the PA system. The FAA does not require passengers to be awake during descent. He was right. The crew was wrong. By the way, that was the subject of the article, not his abiity as an actor.
A grown man, who dont want to be woke up?
Very immature to act a bot in public because he was woke up,,,
I thought he was more mature than this?

i dont believe the the f/a would have awakened him if his seat belt was fastened or his seat was upright, which leads be to believe that belushi was in the wrong here.

This is what's called a Publicity Stunt. It's been done for years. Since his show went off the air he needs to keep his name in the public eye until he lands another job. The public is very gullible and tends to believe stories like this so I can see why they take advantage of it.

What planet do you live on? His new show, "The Defenders" is on CBS at 10:00 P.M. and is beating everyone; won the night last Wednesday in all the important categories. It is a huge hit and will be easily picked up. They just showed the fourth episode, so he doesn't need the publicity, his new show is a big hit.
What is your next theory?
I KNOW FOR A FACT IF WE DID WHAT HE DID WE WOULD GO TO JAIL!

I am sure his chair was not upright, otherwise there would be no need to wake him. Rules are rules, no matter who you are. What a jerk he must be.

I figured he was a jerk. This proves it. If he were that tired..he should get a real job like the rest of us. lol He is just living off of his brothers name and fame. They should have taken him to jail..like they would have me if i had done the same thing.

The flight attendent should have politely informed Jim questionable talent made it on my brother's rep, Belushi, that the plane had landed and that unless he wanted the next destination, he should get his fat ass off the plane.

Clearly American Airlines did nothing wrong. The guy is a jerk who is trying simply to get his name in the news to salvage his failing career.
