Hopefully they can afford the price they'll have to pay for diverting the plane...

Tefal · 26 Jul 2008 at 19:15

It would be the chav/yob behavior yes...

No, but it is the kind of behaviour one expects from a chav and as such calling them a chav is a fair assumption.

Fothsn · 26 Jul 2008 at 19:22

Okay when you go out on a Friday/Saturday night all the drinking and trouble that’s involved you would class them all chavs? This word is used far too much to stereotype people which 9/10 they are not chavs!

The term 'chav' is often used as a stereotype to refer to the poorly educated, aggressive working-class"

So yes it dam well does

JBuk · 26 Jul 2008 at 19:23

Chav's don't work, they're not working class!

Yes! This man gets it

Oh look let’s call them chavs because there drunk and causing trouble :rolleyes:

Fraggr · 26 Jul 2008 at 19:28

I'd say it's pretty safe to say they are chavs. This is one of the times on here it's probably the right description.

No, but most people that go out drinking and smoking on weekends don't tend to repeat that behaviour at 35,000 feet...

As far as I'm concerned, if they act like chavs, or dress like chavs, they are chavs. Doesn't mean they can't be nice people - just means my first assumption is 'chav' and I shall act appropriately - if I am given the chance to get to know them, then indeed, my opinions will change to reflect this.

+ Not all drunk people cause trouble either. It's mostly chavs that do that.

To me that is the very essence of being a chav, they don't have to wear burberry to be classed as one, they just have to be thick as pig ****, aggressive, yobbish, drunk, and generally anti social.

Usually I would agree that it's used far too often on this forum but to call them chavs from what is said in that news article sounds pretty spot on. Getting drunk before a flight/on-board? I think quite a few of us are guilty of that. I do think very few of us would then start trying to bottle flight attendants and what not. Sounds like they were very anti-social and idiotic ergo they're chavs.
