Natasha Lyonne, the acclaimed star of the hit series ‘Poker Face’, has reportedly been removed from a Delta Airlines flight for not adhering to the flight crew’s instructions before takeoff. The incident is said to have taken place shortly after her attendance at the premiere of ‘Euphoria’ Season 3 in Los Angeles.
According to reports from Page Six, the incident occurred on 7 April when Lyonne was set to travel from Los Angeles International Airport to New York City. Eyewitnesses suggest that the 47-year-old actress did not respond to multiple requests from crew members to shut her laptop and fasten her seatbelt as the flight prepared for departure.

It has been claimed that Lyonne appeared to be dozing off while wearing sunglasses, which may have contributed to her failure to comply with the crew’s directions. The situation escalated to the extent that, despite the aircraft having begun its taxiing towards the runway, the captain made the decision to return to the gate.
Upon returning to the gate, it was reported that Lyonne was escorted off the plane along with her belongings by a Delta gate agent. Passengers were informed that a rebooking was necessary for one traveller, and the flight was subsequently delayed for over an hour.
As of now, Delta Airlines has chosen not to comment on the event, and no official statement has been released regarding the matter. Additionally, representatives for Lyonne have yet to respond to requests for clarification on the incident.
Lyonne’s flight was not directly identified, but data from FlightAware indicates that Delta Flight DL960 from Los Angeles to John F. Kennedy Airport was delayed by exactly one hour and seven minutes on that day. It remains unclear whether this flight was indeed the same one from which she was removed.
The day preceding the flight incident, Lyonne made an impression on the red carpet at the Euphoria premiere, donning large wrap-around sunglasses paired with a striking outfit. Her appearance attracted attention not only for her fashion choices but also for her lively interactions with the crowd, which included an incident where she appeared to be supported by producer Brian Grazer as she navigated the event.
This reported flight incident follows Lyonne’s recent updates about her personal health and recovery journey. In a post dated 19 March, Lyonne expressed gratitude towards her support community while indicating that she was doing considerably better after facing challenges in her sobriety. She noted the significance of her journey and her intention to keep certain aspects of her recovery more private.
Lyonne had previously acknowledged a public relapse earlier this year in a series of posts that have since been deleted. During those communications, she reached out to her fans and others facing similar struggles, encouraging them to remember that they were not alone and that the process of recovery is ongoing.
For those grappling with substance abuse issues, it is vital to seek help. Resources such as the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) helpline are readily available for support.
As the story develops, it will be interesting to see if further details emerge regarding the incident and how it might impact Lyonne’s public persona and career.
