Shortly after takeoff on an eight-hour Virgin Atlantic flight, a woman says she started receiving disturbing messages on the in-flight system from other passengers.

Christina Zdanowicz and Amanda Jackson, CNNShortly after takeoff on an eight-hour flight from London to Washington, DC, a woman says she started receiving disturbing messages on the in-flight system.

One message named her seat number specifically and called her "tidy babe." Another message from a different seat number says "welcome to hell." "I was also appalled and disappointed that someone would be so disrespectful and entitled as to send me messages on a flight when I'm traveling on my own just trying to enjoy my flight peacefully and not be harassed by anyone."

A Virgin Atlantic spokesperson told CNN on Monday that they were "extremely concerned" about this incident and are "investigating as a matter of urgency."

SURE you were snowflake.

Oh man, I hope nobody complains about our in flight messaging system.... I’ve been running wild on it

The people who sent her harassing messages should be put on a no fly list and charged.

Lmao I did this once. Didn’t harass a woman but on a over night flight I set my chat to : you up ? No one replied .

Not-so-Virgin Atlantic

Nice that it’s being phased out.

This in-flight meal tray was designed to be biodegradableA design firm is hoping to spark a discussion into how much plastic waste is produced during in-flight meals by creating a design for an all-in-one, eco-friendly meal tray. Biodegradable trays are a great idea, but how about some edible food to go in them? Just sayin'. Correct me if I'm wrong but the bio-degradation process emits methane which is a green house gas. I’m sure that’ll solve all the planet’s problems. With China’s new dedicated coal railroad I’m sure Biodegradable meal packaging & straw bans will make all the difference in the world.

How anyone can like or promote this bad behavior disturbs me.

Ellen DeGeneres explains why she attended an NFL game with George W. BushEllen DeGeneres addressed the somewhat surprised Twitter reaction to her appearance at an NFL game with George W. Bush, saying she is friends with the former U.S. president. Here's why: her wealth insulates her from even one iota of harm that this man did, and his party continues to do to marginalized communities. She built a brand on fighting for LGBTQ rights, but when the cameras are off, wealth trumps principle. thehamptoneffect Fantastic reply by Ellen. Well said, more people need to follow in her footsteps I do see that back in the day he attempted to ban gay marriage. However I am still with Ellen here, you can be in the same room with people and have different points of view. Heck you can enjoy something together when you have different opposing views.
