How would you react if you were on a flight where a family was boo'd for being allowed off the plane first to receive their soldier's body?

I would consider if they’re flying first class in a pandemic and it’s not for business they’re selfish assholes.

Never been in that situation, but I'd probably get up and LOUDLY reiterate WHY they're allowed to leave the aircraft first!

The airline should have provided them a Up grade to first class, then this would not have been an issue.

A few observations: [1] I would feel the airline would have the family seated in First Class. [2] The family should be escorted to the front door by the steward. [3] The ground agent should receive the family at the front door and continue to escort the family to the tarmac. Procedures like this should resolve this situation.

I would be so upset. Maybe they didn't know. Maybe they're just used to getting their way

Ask them how they'd feel if they were there to receive the remains of a loved one (who died for their freedom to boo) and got booed... Probably would be some choice adjectives in there, too.

Did the booing passengers know those tragic circumstances? Or in the absence of any information, did it just appear that the Gold Star family were rudely jumping to the head of the line?

Well, they would get a person-to-person experience of Gunny Ermy going off in their face. I'd probably get hauled away by the police. But I'd sure get their attention and refocus their inconsiderate selfish brains.

I can't really say what I would do. First of all If I don't have a compelling reason to fly, I will not, I would rather take the extra time and drive, obviously stateside of course. But anymore I feel like air travel is nothing more than cattle car with the addition of draconian and ridiculous rules. I rather like to stay away from those kind of environments. I would not like to get into any debates or conversations with any of those ass holes as that would then require me to endure the rather of the airport police, another group I like to avoid as that experience would be just as annoying as the first. So in answer to your question, probably just give then the old standard finger salute and move on my way.
