Three Canadian airlines refusing to board 'unruly' Quebec influencers returning from Mexico

Multiple Canadian airlines say they will refuse to board a group of Quebec social media influencers and reality TV stars on their way back from Cancun who were seen partying maskless, vaping, and drinking in the aisles during their departure flight last week.
Video footage of the rowdy Dec. 30 flight on board a Sunwing Airlines chartered plane circulated widely online on Tuesday and has made national headlines — and even drew some harsh words from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
Sunwing was the first airline to publicly say it will not let the “unruly” group of passengers to board their planes after cancelling their return flight home, alleging in a statement sent to CTV News that the group “did not accept all of the terms” and conditions the airline said were necessary “to ensure the safety of the crew and passengers.”
Now, each person was left to try to book his or her own ticket home after their trip was scheduled to end on Wednesday. However, it appears that they will not have an easy time finding a flight.
Later Wednesday morning, Air Transat followed suit and vowed to not board the people seen in the video as they try to head back home from their holiday in the popular sunset resort town of Tulum, Mexico.
