Arman Tsarukyan and two members of his team were removed from an American Airlines flight to Philadelphia because he was looking at his phone during takeoff and someone from his team opened a tray table. Tsarukyan was traveling to compete at a RAF tournament scheduled for Saturday. After being removed from the commercial flight, he quickly arranged a private jet and successfully reached the event location. The incident highlights minor airline regulation violations that resulted in significant travel disruption for the fighter.
