Narrative:
Passenger xx intoxicated, verbal abuse to first class passenger, threatened to rearrange flight attendant's face. Security met flight. Proper reports filled out. Witness report taken by police. When I told passenger no more alcohol would be served to him, he began profanities. My only concern is this man is returning on air carrier. Is he going to be told no alcohol will be served to him? Also, will the #1 flight attendant be notified he is on board? If he is on my flight (hnl-dtw), I will not fly on that airplane unless he is removed. I've put that in writing and verbally to my immediate supervisor. Flight attendants working that trip should be told that passenger is on that plane.
