Alec Baldwin Apologizes, Quits Twitter

Alec Baldwin apologized to his fellow American Airlines passengers in a blog on Huffington Post today, but not to “the 1950′s gym teacher” or other members of the plane crew that forced him to leave a flight.

Baldwin was kicked off the plane, because he refused to turn off his cell phone.

“It was never my intention to inconvenience anyone with my ‘issue’ with a certain flight attendant,” Baldwin wrote.

Baldwin said he’s been a loyal American Airlines customer for more than two decades and the frustration and confusion started when he was already on board a behind-schedule flight.

“I then did what I have nearly always done and that was to pull out my phone to complete any other messaging I had to do before take off. In nearly all other instances, the flight attendants seemed to be unbothered by and said nothing about such activity, by me or anyone else, until we actually were pulling away from the gate.”

Baldwin said he was “singled out” by a flight attendant and felt that he was being made an example of, “while everyone else was left undisturbed.”

Alec Baldwin has now deactivated his Twitter account.

Do you think that Alec was treated unfairly?
