There are ways and means .... that wasn't the correct way

What would be the correct way of removing someone from their seat who was refusing to leave, without physically man-handling him, then? Should they have exercised mind control?
Do the old bus driver technique. Tell everyone 'I'm not going anywhere until he decides to leave'
Then the other passengers will tolerate this for a short time before turning on him. In the UK it would take a lot longer but the US are quick to get aggressive.
That's the one, peer group pressure
years ago when I worked in a hotel we hired a coach to go to Birmingham for a 'It's a knockout' day
We got to the service station and when we returned the coach driver had turned the engine off and the lights off and closed all the doors and just sat there. we are knocking and he ignored us. then he got out and sat on the curb.
Apparently as we had been drinking he was upset and now decided enough was enough. We had to bribe him with several items from the service station.
I was once on an flight where they had sold my seat twice because my original flight out had been cancelled and they'd clearly cancelled my return as well and sold it to someone else. That was fun. I was prepared to be pretty bolshy, but not to the point of chaining myself to my seat. Ultimately, if they'd said I had to get off, I'd have got off.
Fortunately, they had a spare seat. I think they were more concerned that this had been allowed to happen, since it constitutes a fairly massive breach of protocol and security. A German immigration official had to come on and rescan all our passports and tickets. Very tiresome.
