First class arrogance! New Orleans' Democrat mayor says flying economy is UNSAFE for black women, as she refuses to repay $30,000 of taxpayer cash she splurged on luxury flights to Europe
  • Mayor of New Orleans, LaToya Cantrell,
    …one of the Soros mayors, crowned the worst mayor in America by The Spectator after she refused to guarantee the security of next year’s Mardi Gras. Despite all that, she was re-elected with 65% of the vote in her last election …
    is refusing to repay money spent on international business and first-class flights to France and Switzerland

  • Cantrell explained her purchase was a 'safety issue' rather than one of comfort

  • She has also justified the extravagant expense because they were business trips

  • Yet her entourage was fine sitting in economy class seats including her security

  • The mayor also upgrades to the front even on domestic flights within the U.S.

  • She now owes $30,000 in upgrade expenses alone as the city's travel policy states, 'Employees are required to purchase the lowest airfare available… '

  • Any upgrades incurred should be paid for out of employees' own pockets

There is something to that. Maybe moving to another city?

#10 How can anything be unsafe anywhere on a plane, you can’t take nail clippers on a plane. She needs to watch herself in baggage claim but otherwise she should be OK.
