<p>Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg&#39;s sister Randi Zuckerberg has accused a fellow passenger on an Alaska Airlines flight of sexually harassing her.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The businesswoman and best-selling author of DotComplicated claimed that she felt disgusted and degraded and posted a copy of the letter she sent to the airlines, on Twitter.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Zuckerberg tweeted: &quot;Feeling disgusted &amp; degraded after an @AlaskaAir flight where the passenger next to me made repeated lewd sexual remarks. The flight attendants told me he was a frequent flier, brushed off his behaviour &amp; kept giving him drinks. I guess his $ means more than our safety? My letter:&quot;</p>

<p>She mentioned in the letter that she was in a &#39;very uncomfortable situation&#39; after the fellow passenger made &#39;explicit, lewd and highly offensive sexual comments&#39; to her immediately after boarding the flight.&#39;&nbsp;</p>

<p>She described how the man talked about &#39;touching himself, kept asking her if she fantasized about female business colleagues she was travelling with, rated and commented on women&#39;s bodies boarding the aircraft as they walked by and other such horrifying and offensive comments.&#39;</p>

<p>What was shocking was how the airline staff reacted to Zuckerberg&#39;s complaint.&nbsp;</p>

<p>According to her letter, the flight attendant said that &#39;the guy was a frequent Alaska Airlines traveller on the exact route and that they have talked to him about his behaviour in the past. &#39;<br />
They further told her to &#39;not take it personally as the guy does not have a filter&#39;.&nbsp;</p>

<p>According to the letter, the flight attendant came to their seat multiple times and sweetly asked the passenger with a giggle &quot;Are you behaving today?&quot;&nbsp;</p>

<p>Upon telling the flight attendant that she was uncomfortable, they suggested her to move her seat at the back of the plane.</p>

<p>She furiously lashed out &quot;Why should I have to move?&quot; she said. &quot;I am the one that is being harassed! Why is it the woman that needs to switch seats in this situation? Shouldn&#39;t he have been thrown off the plane?!&quot;</p>

<p>The letter further mentions how Alaska Airlines knowingly and willingly provided the man with a platform to harass women.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Since sharing the letter on twitter it has been retweeted over 12,000 times.</p>

<p>After the letter was sent, the Airline got in touch with her. Zuckerberg tweeted later that day &quot;UPDATE: I just got off the phone with two executives from @AlaskaAir who informed me that they are conducting an investigation and have temporarily suspended this passenger&rsquo;s travel privileges. Thank you for taking this seriously.&quot;</p>
