Arman Tsarukyan removed from commercial flight, takes private jet to RAF event

Arman Tsarukyan and two friends were removed from an American Airlines flight for allegedly looking at his phone during takeoff and someone in his party opening a tray table. Tsarukyan was traveling to Philadelphia for his upcoming bout at RAF on Saturday. After being taken off the commercial flight, the lightweight contender quickly arranged alternative transportation by chartering a private jet. He successfully made it to the event location despite the travel disruption. The incident highlights the strict enforcement of airline safety regulations, even for professional athletes traveling to competitions. Tsarukyan's fight at RAF 08 remains scheduled as planned.
