The head of the Federal Aviation Administration also signed an order Wednesday to enforce a "zero-tolerance" policy against passengers who engage in threatening or disruptive behavior on commercial airline flights.
Several videos of supporters of President Trump chanting, shouting and berating fellow passengers including members of Congress have gone viral. In one, on an American Airlines flight from Texas to Washington, D.C., passengers shout at flight attendants while someone projects a pro-trump image on the ceiling.
