Jet Blue Staff-Punching Lady Released from Jail

The Queens woman who is accused of verbally abusing and punching Jet Blue flight attendants during a flight from NYC to San Francisco was released on bail yesterday. Christina Szele was allegedly drunk and caught the crew's--and fellow passengers'--attention when she lit a cigarette on the plan. She had been in a Denver jail for the past week and a half; 1010 WINS reported, "The magistrate who set her bail ordered her not to travel on planes or drink alcohol."

enjoy the Greyhound bus ride back from Denver!

I need to get her number her defense was she does not remember any thing. And since she did pay for a trip to NYC will Jet Blue then pay for her bus ride or train ticket from Denver?

JetBlue will likely reimburse her for the unused portion of her flight -minus the cost of diverting to Denver and inconveniencing all the other passengers and crew. If they were smart, the City of Denver would spring for that one-way bus ticket.
