American Airlines has banned a passenger for refusing to wear a face mask on a flight from Charlotte, N.C., to Washington, D.C.

The unmasked woman, who has not been identified, was filmed yelling at the plane's crew and passengers in a video posted to Twitter. "If we don’t stand up it’s only going to get worse," she's seen shouting into the cabin onboard American Airlines flight 2198 on Sunday evening. Passengers seated in neighboring rows moved away from her during the outburst, as seen in the clip posted by Twitter user Emir Sfaxi on Sunday.

Safaxi added that the woman had also attempted to give a speech about "tyranny" during her outburst.

"The aircraft landed without further incident and was met on arrival by Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority Police," American added. The carrier also confirmed that the customer is being placed on its internal refuse list, pending further investigation.
