Weeks After Plane Incident, Mike Tyson Answers “Why Are You Flying on JetBlue?”

The infamous plane incident of Mike Tyson remained in the headlines for weeks. But there is one interesting fact about the plane incident that paved the way for another question. Notably, ‘The Baddest Man on The Planet’ always prefers JetBlue airlines for traveling. This made the renowned American comedian Bill Maher curious about the fact. He asked Tyson, “Why are you flying on JetBlue?”

Recently, the former two-time World Heavyweight Champion, Mike Tyson, sat with television host and commentator Bill Maher on his show ‘Club Random with Bill Maher’.

The exclusive interaction began with the question. Maher asked Tyson, “Mike, I have to ask you the question the whole world wants to know. Why are you flying on JetBlue?”. And, Tyson replied, “My wife says the same thing.”

It seemed like probably Maher was not expecting such an answer. Adding one more detail that JetBlue is Tyson’s favorite airline, he asked, “Why is it your favorite airline?”

Tyson said that he loves JetBlue. However, he didn’t care to explain further, as he did not know the reason behind it.

What happened in the Plane that made Mike Tyson angry?

The ‘Iron Mike’ was traveling from San Francisco, and a passenger harassed him on a flight, as TMZ Sports reported it. According to a representative of Tyson, the young man was aggressive. He crossed all limits, first by verbally provoking Tyson and then throwing a water bottle at him.
