A passenger who allegedly assaulted a Southwest Airlines flight attendant, knocking out two of their teeth, has been permanently banned from traveling with the airline. According to USA Today, Southwest’s vice president of in-flight operations, Sonya Lacore, announced the ban in a Wednesday memo sent to flight attendants. “As we’ve communicated previously, we do have a process to permanently restrict passengers from traveling on Southwest, and please know that the passenger involved in the most recent incident has been advised that she may no longer fly on Southwest Airlines,” Lacore wrote. Vyvianna Quinonez was identified by local police earlier this week as the passenger who allegedly initiated a physical altercation with a flight attendant on a Southwest flight headed to San Diego on Sunday. Quinonez was charged with battery causing serious bodily injury, which is a felony, according to USA Today.
