We were removed from a plane due to our size — flight attendants called it ‘an inconvenience’

Sky’s the limit — but not on this airline.
A female passenger claimed that she and a friend were allegedly ordered off an Air New Zealand flight due to their size.
“I just couldn’t believe what was happening to me,” Angel Harding told 1News of the traumatizing incident, which allegedly occurred on a flight from Napier to Auckland.
The pair had reportedly been returning from a Hui (a Māori term for an “informal gathering”) in Hastings, having flown from Kerikeri to Auckland, and then Auckland to Napier without any issue.
The woman said she was looking out of the window while the plane was taxiing on the tarmac, when all of a sudden, she felt a sharp pain.
That’s when she allegedly turned to see a flight attendant slamming the armrest down on her arm.
