Two Miami MAGA influencers called out Delta Airlines after a staff member 'screamed' at passengers over their puppy.

The podcast duo, who go by the moniker Mostly Peaceful Latinas, took to X Wednesday following an 'unpleasant' run-in with flight attendants during a trip to Los Angeles.

Linda Catalina and Isabella Rodriguez discussed pop culture and current events on their weekly podcast, mostly highlighting far-right views and talking points.

The social media page is managed by Catalina, who appeared to be responsible for the ruthless callout against the popular airline.

'Every single one of your crew members was extremely rude,' she wrote.

One of the flight attendants, whom Catalina called a 'little meatball,' allegedly 'screamed' at a couple for placing their five-pound puppy between them.

'This is the last time I'll tell you! Put the dog on top of you,' he reportedly said.
'We all looked up and behind us, wondering why he was so upset,' she added.

Catalina said that crew members 'didn't want to be bothered' when she asked for water or coffee, defiantly stating she'll be sticking with American Airlines in the future.

According to the policy listed on Delta's website, any pets traveling in the cabin of an airplane are required to fit in a soft-sided kennel that fits under the seat.

'Failure to comply with all pet policies and keep your pet in the kennel at all times while in the airport and onboard the aircraft may result in losing the ability to travel with your pet on future flights,' read the webpage.

In a statement to the Daily Mail, the airline said it 'can't corroborate the authenticity of this post as-is.'

'Delta invites these customers to contact us directly with their feedback and specifics about their travel. We look into each claim and respond accordingly,' a spokesperson wrote.

Comments under the controversial podcast hosts' page were divisive, with several taking Delta's side in the debacle.

'Taking pictures of the flight attendant and posting them online because you had a bad flight is LAME,' one person wrote.
'Why is that damn dog not in a carrier. It's not your baby, regardless of what you think,' another added.
'Why is Fido entitled to break the rules, be out of his crate, and sit on a seat they didn't pay for, that flight attendant will have to clean,' a third commented. 'Because he's cute? I think not. The entitlement here is off the chain.'

Others were in agreement with the pair and even shared their own unpleasant run-ins with airline staffers.

'All U.S. airlines have deprioritized the customer to zero for the sake of their profits,' one commenter added.
'There are no effective consumer protection laws in America and so air travel will continue to get worse for Americans while the airline profits rise. Use your $$$ to demand better.'
'It's not just Delta. Flew 11-hour flight from Frankfurt to Denver on United last month; it would be nice if attendants would round during a long flight like that,' another said.
'If you pushed the button for assistance, it was obviously such an inconvenience for them to get up to assist you.'

Catalina appeared to be amused by the carnage in the comment section.

'So this tweet angered a lot of people,' she later posted, adding a laughing emoji. 'Peep the responses.'

Per their podcast description, Catalina and Rodriguez dedicate their show to exposing 'the lies in the mainstream media' and having 'provocative conversations about the current state of the world.'

Catalina, who is originally from Colombia, is an outspoken critic of the CDC and pro-vaccination policies.

Rodriguez, for her part, is a self-described 'fake news corrector' and 'Trump Loyalty enforcer.'

The duo have accrued more than 9,000 subscribers on YouTube and almost 200,000 combined followers on Instagram.

The women no longer upload weekly podcast episodes, but frequently do livestreams and media appearances as a pair.
