Probably Skyping mid flight

not upto his old tricks i hope

[Ruthless-RKO]

There was a complaint that the friend he was travelling with, his mask was in his face properly or was too low.

They removed them both from the plane.

Khan doesn’t think he should have been removed. Didn’t say anything about his friend or seem to back him.

Think crew were worried Khan's jaw would shatter 30,000 feet in the air due to pressure

Said they wouldn’t put their bags away, wouldn’t put their phones on airplane mode , one of them didn’t have mask on properly. And we’re told repeatedly.

Would he have been removed if he was white?

[jamesmcdonnell]

Yes.

They don't piss around in the US on flights.

And let’s be honest with Khan and his team you can believe it.

As much as I do like to take the piss out of Khan, I do like him, he's great value in and out the ring but hastagging that not all black people are terrorists is disgusting, especially if it's his own stupid fault and nothing to do with race whatsoever

Let's be honest, Khan is thick as mince and is probably surrounded by total cretins.

And his Mrs isn't the most likeable woman around either.

Not the race card ffs. That shit makes it harder for people who are racially abused to be believed.

100%

It is a parody when race is used by a person of colour to enable rule breaking.

As said above. It's so well used it's taken as default now when something like this happens.

He has a large global following, especially in India and China, and has been described by Newsweek as "the biggest movie star"[4][5] in the world
