Woman on Frontier Airlines flight refuses to let passengers disembark until daughter steps out first

Woman's daughter was seated several rows behind
Footage shows a crowd of passengers stuck behind the woman, while those ahead had already exited.
She insisted that her daughter, seated several rows behind, be allowed to pass first. “They won’t let my daughter pass, and I’m not getting off without her,” she told a flight attendant in an aggressive tone.
Other passengers confronted her. One asked, “What is wrong with you? I would hate to be your daughter and have to go home with you; no wonder she’s back there.” The woman snapped back, warning the passenger to “be careful” and not to “say s**t” to her.

The flight attendant tried to calm the situation, suggesting the woman step aside and wait for her daughter. The woman refused, asking, “Why they can't let her come pass?” Passengers explained that her daughter, coming from the back of the plane, didn’t need to cut through again.
Another passenger added, “You haven’t been on this plane long enough, lady?” The woman yelled in response, “Mind your business, b***h! Nobody said nothing to you and you’re not the problem solver!”
The tense situation continued until the flight attendant finally convinced the woman to move to a row and let passengers exit. As she shifted, she shouted, “f**k y’all.”
A witness who filmed the incident explained that the flight had already been delayed by three hours, which naturally increased frustration among passengers.
He said the woman had initially claimed she was cutting the line to meet her mother, but people quickly realized she wasn’t meeting anyone. She shouted to her daughter seated at the back, creating a bigger blockage in the aisle.

The video went viral on social media, sparking outrage and discussion about “main character syndrome.”
"I can understand wanting your daughter to come up before you exit the plane, but the simple solution is just step to the side. Wait for your daughter to get to you and then y’all can walk out together lol," one wrote.

Another remarked, "Yes, how did the mom not think of this to begin with? Another question is why were they not sitting together? I’m a mom and my kids were always right next to me when we flew on airplanes. If I could not afford to fly, we drove in a car together."

"What I don't understand is why someone doesn't just shove her aside. Does she have super strength or maybe a super heated toxic self defense mechanism like one of those beetles or something," an individual wondered.
