Flight attendant and TikToker Sandra Jeenie Kwon has gone viral with her video explaining the various reasons you could be denied boarding an airplane.

A flight attendant on TikTok revealed the reasons an airline can stop you from boarding, and viewers weren't completely, well, on board with the list.

TikToker Sandra Jeenie Kwon (@jeenie.weenie) opened the eyes of many travelers after disclosing nine reasons you can be denied boarding an airplane, and while some seem like common sense, others seem unfair to viewers in the comments.


The creator captioned her video with a warning:

"Beware! Airlines can deny you boarding for these reasons."

In the video, Kwon listed off the things that could keep you from stepping on a plane.

Number one and two on the list are "being sick" and being "heavily intoxicated," respectively.

The TikToker explained:

"While boarding, if a flight attendant can sense that you might be a little sick and about to puke, they can deny you boarding."
"I know some of you like to drink before a flight but just remember if you look way too drunk, we can deny you boarding."

She then added that a passenger can be denied for being barefoot before continuing on to the next item.

"For our larger passengers if you cannot safely put on your seatbelt with an extender, the flight attendants can deny you boarding."

Kwon also mentioned that flying while "really, really" pregnant without a doctor's note could be grounds for denied entry.

"If you look really pregnant like really, really—and you don’t have a doctor’s note to prove how many weeks you are or if you can fly—they may deny you boarding."

The TikToker revealed that if you are "smelling bad" you could be denied boarding, as well.

She next brought up "dressing inappropriately."

"Some airlines will actually deny you boarding if you’re wearing something a little bit too sexy."

And finally, don't be disrespectful.

"...if you're kind of an a-hole, we can deny you boarding."
"So be kind, everyone."

And a few felt that facing repercussions for infractions is unfair if the reasons aren't public knowledge.

While we can't promise we won't be "too sexy" for our next flight, we will certainly try our hardest to adhere to the other items on the list 😉.
