Tsarukyan removed from flight, switches to private jet for RAF 8 bout with Faber

Arman Tsarukyan was removed from a commercial flight along with his team due to airline regulation violations, including phone use during takeoff and not securing tray tables. He was traveling to compete at a wrestling tournament when the incident occurred. After being kicked off the American Airlines flight, Tsarukyan arranged a private jet to ensure he could still make his scheduled match. His bout against Urijah Faber at RAF 8 remains on schedule for this Saturday. The situation was resolved quickly enough that his fight participation was never in serious jeopardy.
