A woman aboard a Cathy Pacific plane in Hong Kong was escorted off the plane when she refused to place her Gucci handbag under the seat. She actually delayed the plane for more than an hour because she would not do as the flight attendant asked. And was still arguing when security guards and police showed up. When police threatened to arrest she finally agreed to get off the plane with her precious bag. Wow someone really loves Gucci.
