The takeoff of an Air Canada plane&nbsp;bound for&nbsp;Montreal was cancelled suddenly after a flight attendant got into an argument with a passenger over a blanket. The flight was taxing its way to the runway at Casablanca, Morroco on Friday morning&nbsp;when the altercation happened. The video of the incident has gone viral on social media.

While it is not clear what led to the meltdown of the crew member, the reports suggest the passenger requested a blanket as the air conditioning was excessive.

The footage of the infuriated flight attendant has been shared widely in which she can be seen yelling at the passenger in French and English. She called the police and asked the passenger to get off the flight.

She shouted, ''You will behave or we will get off! I'll tell the captain right away. Yes or no?''

In a statement to CTV News, the airline confirmed the cancellation of the flight on July 26. Air Canada brought in a different crew to take the passengers to Montreal on Sunday. The airline said that they would provide compensation for the delay and flight attendant's behaviour.

Mass cancellation of flights at the airport in Genevia

Southwest Airlines will refund tickets and reimburse passengers for other related expenses they incurred as a result of the mass cancellations a few days back. Thousands of people were left stranded across the country after the airline scrapped around 2,000 airlines as the winter storm raged in the U.S.&nbsp;On Wednesday, at least 2,600 flights were cancelled due to bad weather, of which nearly all of them belonged to Southwest. The rest of the US airlines together account for a little more than 100 of those cancellations, reports CNN.

Southwest Airlines' chief commercial officer, Ryan Green, told reporters on Thursday that the payments will take several weeks but will cover the costs people incurred when they were forced to make alternative travel arrangements. This will include the money they spent on meals and gas. The company will also pay to ship people’s baggage to them.

Other airlines, including American Airlines and United, said they would place a price cap on the tickets to help those affected by the cancellations. Southwest Airlines planned to return to normal operations Friday, with minimal disruptions.

While Delta has implemented “walk-up fare caps in US domestic markets”, Alaska Airlines told Axios that it will also cut fares in certain cities, even though it already has a ceiling on its tickets.&nbsp;

The airline cancelled 2,363 flights on Thursday, data from Flightaware.com indicates. On Wednesday, Southwest cancellations stood at 2,510. Federal authorities said they will investigate the matter.

"With consecutive days of extreme winter weather across our network behind us, continuing challenges are impacting our customers and employees in a significant way that is unacceptable," Southwest had said in a statement.

While a major part of the U.S. was battling a historic winter storm, leading to holiday travel being disrupted, Southwest cancelled flights even in places where the storm did not have an impact, such as California.

There were reports of long queues, days-long delays and stranded passengers contending with Southwest agents who seemed helpless, some on the verge of tears.
