Someone else penned: “Me agreeing with commenters that she should read the room because she has more money than I’ll ever see in my life but also knowing I would be very annoyed at an airline for doing airline things no matter what my income level is.”
A Redditor wrote: “You shouldn’t be surprised at how self-centered celebrities and people can be.”

“Oh, I’m not surprised,” a netizen added. “Just constantly baffled. Living in a privileged bubble produces a stunning lack of awareness.”
A separate individual chimed in: “Agreed. Last year, my kiddo and I took an international flight. Their screen didn’t work. It was annoying as hell. Delta said ‘Whatever’.”

The 47-year-old actress subsequently shared a screenshot of an exchange she had with the American airline’s customer service.
In the messages, a JetBlue representative told Jessica that flight attendants had issued “$15 each for the TV outage,” Unilad reported on Thursday.
Jessica responded: “I understand but I spent $1500 on the flight and so did my husband. There should be some flight credit or something since I have a TrueBlue account and have been a loyal customer.”

JetBlue then pointed out that the $15 was flight credit, and there was nothing more the representative could do.
The actress is known for primarily starring in projects with feminist themes and has received various accolades, including an Academy Award and a Golden Globe.
In 2012, Time magazine named her one of the 100 most influential people in the world. According to Celebrity Net Worth, Jessica’s current net worth is $50 million.
