Answer

Can airlines permanently ban passengers from flying after filming incidents?

Some airlines write very strict penalties into their conditions of carriage, including bans from future flights. Whether that is justified depends on how serious the incident was and whether the airline’s reaction is proportionate. A blanket threat of a permanent ban is more controversial than a clear response to deliberate harassment.
