In her follow-up tweets, she shared that when she started to film the exchange between her and the WestJet supervisor, he told her that unless she deleted the video she wouldn't be able to get on another flight.

"It is sad that I wasn’t able to get any help unless I publicly aired my experience. WestJet DM’d me my booking reference number after I had asked for it repeatedly at the airport. I ended up getting in the taxi because I was legitimately worried about getting arrested," Chiu stated at the end of her tweet.
