Southwest Says Lawsuit Came From Bad Bathroom Humor

A Southwest flight attendant is alleging in a lawsuit that two pilots streamed live video of people, including her, using a bathroom on the aircraft to an iPad in the cockpit. But the airline says it was a prank that went wrong and the pilots deny it altogether. The flight attendant claims in the suit that on a flight from Pittsburgh to Phoenix in February of 2017 she was ordered into the cockpit so the captain could go to the bathroom. Two crew members are required up front for security reasons and flight attendants fill that role on two-pilot flights. Video of the captain entering the lav appeared on an iPad on the glareshield. She alleges the first officer told her that hidden cameras in the bathroom were a new secret security feature on Southwest planes (they’re not) and it appears things got worse after that.
