Photographer, 26, claims United Airlines flight crew 'laughed at her and made jokes' after a man masturbated next to her and she demanded to be moved seats

Genevieve Pascolla, 26 (left), said in an Instagram post that she was traveling on a United Airlines flight from Heathrow Airport to Chicago when a male passenger began masturbating next to her (right). After she reported the man's actions to the flight attendants, she and another female passenger were given new seats. However, Pascolla says that the staff then began snickering and making jokes, implying that he was masturbating because of her. After sending, a complaint to United Airlines headquarters, the company apologized but said Pascolla was ineligble for a refund or 'goodwill compensation'. After her post went viral, Pascolla said she was given a voucher for half the cost of her ticket after she tweeted about she what she experienced.
