It was one of those smaller 717's. If they did need to get someone off for cargo they sure sold it well lol

A normal airline would accommodate the passenger in some way shape or form.
Not him him in the face and drag him down the aisle.
I'm sure if another passenger was offered some compensation to take his place (considering the only reason he refused was because he was a specialty doctor flying to see a patient) in sure none of this would have had to happen.
I know, I was just saying for the sake of argument because this does happen often where they need to kick passengers off the plane for whatever reason.
