JetBlue representatives claimed that Pump became undisciplined and verbally abusive to the flight crew, taking off his mask during the flight and then refusing to put it back on.
The airline had to call LAX airport in advance to request that the police be on standby when landing, but apparently no arrests were made or any reports were made.
TMZ also obtained correspondence from the cockpit, saying that the captain reported that LP was (perhaps on purpose) sneezing and coughing on a blanket without a mask, which needed to be treated ‘firmly’.

Although the rapper finally agreed and put his mask back on, he later went on to social media in a rant against JetBlue.
In a video clip deleted on Instagram, Pump said ‘f ** k JetBlue’ and that he will never wear a mask in ‘202021’.
He also said that he thought ‘the coronavirus is fake’.
