"She flew on American Sunday morning back to New York (LGA)-arriving around 8:30 a.m. ET [Sunday] morning".

"American Airlines calls the shots", an officer is seen saying in one of the tweeted clips. The flight attendant asked Selter if she wanted to sit down and she said "no", when asked if she wanted to get off the plane she said "yes". The model later said she was being sarcastic.

Selter refused to comply, allegedly arguing that there where two other passengers standing in line for the restroom.

"I don't understand this, you harassing her". Later, she wrote of her experience, "Just like that, five cops coming at me".

According to Selter's Twitter feed, moments after her conversation with the people who appeared to be a pilot and flight attendant, she was approached by men in uniform who told Selter she needs to get off the plane.

Jen Selter, who lives in NY and was on her way home from Miami International Airport, took to social media to post videos including one that shows a Miami-Dade police officer telling her that she has to get off the plane.

While another passenger went to the bathroom, Selter made a decision to stand and reach for something in the overhead compartment, TMZ reports. "Worst experience American Air", she captioned the post.

As it turns out, the argument ensued after Selter left her seat to reach out for the overhead compartment when another passenger had gone to the bathroom.

Responding to the allegations, airlines authorities claimed that the model was offered accommodation and transportation but she declined.

Selter additionally posted on Twitter another short video from what seems, by all accounts, to be inside the fly extension outside the plane.

According to TMZ, Selter and her sister were on a delayed flight home for more than two and half hours. "I just think they need to make changes within themselves and have to treat their passengers differently".

"Ms. Selter was asked to leave the aircraft after a disagreement occurred Saturday night at Miami International Airport (MIA)".
