Most people who remember to pack their brain when they travel know it is a stupid idea to make jokes about bombs etc. |

I'd imagine the fuel would cost more than $21,143.

There are big disclaimers on DJ itinerary paperwork who go into detail about making jokes about aviation security and that they take them all seriously and that if you do make a joke and it results in delays or disruptions to flights DJ will seek damages for any losses as a result.

Even if the criminal case did not result in the guy having to pay for damages, a civil case could certainly be brought about to this effect.

However, it may not be worth their while. You would have to make an assessment of the defendent's capacity to pay. If he didn't have the immediate capacity, then you start looking at garnishee orders (difficult if he becomes a self-employed electrician), through to bankruptcy. I suspect it would be a case of throwing good money after bad.

I am sure it would have cost V most than $21K that was quoted. That fool should have to pay the cost, not that $1500 that was quoted. Airlines can't afford a bill of that size, and at the end of the day, the airline and its passengers suffer because of one idiot.
