CRI听力:Ex-Korean Air Executive Detained in 'Nut Rage' Case
A South Korean court has ordered that a former Korean Air executive be detained for delaying a flight following an outburst over the way she was served nuts.
40-year-old Cho Hyun-ah, the daughter of the airline's chairman and head of in-flight service before she resigned after the incident, has faced mounting public anger because she forced the flight to return to its gate in New York to remove a senior flight attendant.
She was angry that the nuts were served in a bag, not on a plate, in an incident that has been dubbed "nut rage".
"She ordered the captain to contact the control tower to stop the flight from taking off. Under this circumstance, there was no way for me to disobey the daughter of the airline's chairman."
The flight arrived at its destination, Incheon, 11 minutes late, and the case has prompted both outrage and ridicule.
