racist removed from plane

A 70-year-old man was removed from a plane after reportedly hurling racist insults at a black flight attendant.

According to multiple Spanish media outlets, a man of unknown nationality boarded a Binter Canarias flight to La Palma at North Tenerife Airport. While he was getting on the plane, witnesses saw the man "hurl racist abuse" at a black flight attendant.

Spanish media outlet El Pais reported that the man allegedly said "I don't want blacks around me" to the flight attendant.


After finding a seat, the passenger was confronted by the plane's captain, who ordered the man to leave.
