Crop top woman left in tears after being shamed by attendant.

 

A woman was left in tears after claiming a flight attendant shamed her for wearing a crop top onto a flight.

 

Sierra Steadman, a high school volleyball player from Washington, shared a video on TikTok explaining that an Alaska Airlines attendant ‘slut shamed’ her and ‘grabbed’ her arm while threatening to kick her off the plane over her outfit.

 

According to Steadman, she boarded the plane wearing a hoodie with a black crop top and shorts, prompting a crew member to instruct the student to cover up.

 

As Steadman continued to walk past, the attendant allegedly ‘screamed’ after her and ‘grabbed’ her arm threatening to kick her off the flight.

 

“I’ve never felt more degraded, ashamed, embarrassed, angry or sad. F ALASKA AIRLINES!!!!!!!” she captioned the video.

 

“When I tried to walk away from her because she was screaming in my face she grabbed my arm,” Steadman wrote in one comment.

 

“Outfit aside, there was no reason to physically and verbally assault me and humiliate me, especially when I complied w[ith] her request.”

 

Many people have shown support for Steadman online, with one person commenting: “This (the outfit) looks fine… I really expected something crazy.”

 

“Dude literally every girl wears that. I’m sorry that this happened to you” another wrote.

 

Steadman posted another video where she shared the airline’s apology sent in a text message to her mother.

 

“Alaska strives to provide exceptional service to our customers. From what you have shared, it is apparent that we have failed,” the text read.

 

“You and your daughter should expect nothing less than to be treated with the utmost respect, compassion and care. It is truly disappointing to hear that you both did not feel that way during boarding and during the interactions with our flight attendant.

 

“We want to assure you that we take these matters very seriously and have shared your concern with our Inflight Management team that will conduct an internal investigation. Due to privacy concerns, we will not be able to disclose any findings, but can guarantee you that this will be reviewed,” they wrote.

 

“On behalf of Alaska, I’d like to sincerely apologize for Sierra’s experience with our Flight Attendant and apologize to you both for how this was handled.”
