A 40-year-old evangelist identified as Whitney Lynn has claimed that she was banned from Alaska Airlines after being removed from a flight while preaching during a delay.
The incident reportedly occurred on July 30 aboard Alaska Airlines Flight 708, which was scheduled to travel from Orlando International Airport to San Diego.

In a video shared on Instagram, Lynn showed the moment she was escorted from the aircraft by a cabin crew member. According to Lynn, the crew member told her that other passengers were no longer safe with her on the flight.
Lynn later said she received an email from the airline informing her that she had been banned from Alaska Airlines and its sister airlines over what the company described as disruptive behaviour and non-compliance.
Speaking about the ban, Lynn said:
“Just got an email from Alaska Airlines, oh how I love you so much
“Telling me that I’m basically banned officially, I’m officially banned forever and ever from Alaska Airlines.
“And the other sister airlines for my disruptive behaviour and being non-compliant.
“I’ll tell you what, guys – I truly feel strongly in my spirit that this is a spiritual battle, and I can feel it. This is bigger than just “disruptive behaviour.”
“How many videos are out there of people yelling, screaming, hooping, hollering, and causing chaos on planes, yet they aren’t banned?
“I didn’t yell, scream, curse anyone out, or threaten anyone.
“I have every right to ask questions. So how is that ‘disruptive behaviour’?
“I believe this is about religious discrimination and Christian freedom of speech.
Lynn also questioned why she was banned while pointing to other incidents involving passengers behaving disruptively on aircraft.
She described the situation as a religious freedom issue and maintained that she had not threatened or verbally abused anyone during the incident.
