Veronicas say Qantas attendant hid ID card
Pop duo The Veronicas have accused a Qantas flight attendant of obscuring his ID card, days after they were kicked off a weekend flight.
Sisters Jessica and Lisa Origliasso threatened legal action against the airline after being asked to leave a Brisbane-bound plane in Sydney on Sunday morning.
On Friday the pair posted on social media alleging a flight attendant obscured his Aviation Security Identification Card after threatening to call security, days after the dispute over cabin baggage which saw Australian Federal Police come on board the flight.
They claim the man "turned his body away so we could not see his badge" upon telling them he was going to call security.
When he returned he had his ID card pinned backwards, the pair claim in a social media post with accompanying photo.
Earlier this week Qantas said two passengers refused to follow the cabin crew's instructions and were "offloaded" before the flight took off.
The AFP said officers came on board amid an argument between the two passengers and staff before the women agreed to disembark, with no further issues.
Qantas stood by its initial statement in response to Friday's allegations.
