A woman passenger who appears in a viral video of a disruption on an American Airlines flight in July is not named Jenna Wilson, a spokesperson for the airline said. The passenger also has not been charged with hate crimes, according to a Department of Justice spokesperson. But a tweet from a parody account calling her Jenna Wilson and claiming she faces federal hate crimes charges for disrupting the flight while insisting another passenger was “not real” has been taken seriously by users online. American Airlines spokesperson Sarah Jantz said in an email on July 12 that the name of the passenger in the viral clip is not “Jenna Wilson”. A search for “Jenna Wilson” with the airline name does not lead to any credible news reports supporting the claim (tinyurl.com/54wve59w).

The text in the image says, “Pilots now training to jump in if the other pilot ‘DIES SUDDENLY’, cuz its been happening enuf times now. That’s fricken scary to fly now!” It also includes a screenshot of another post that shares an anecdote alleging this is a recent addition to annual pilot training and simulator practice for pilots. Specifically, the two pilots must both be “qualified” pilots, the FAA spokesperson said. U.S. pilots have not received new training because of vaccinated pilots becoming incapacitated, a major U.S. airline told Reuters. Federal law has required two pilots on flights since 1964, and an FAA spokesperson said these pilots must be qualified to take over if one of them becomes incapacitated.
