Flight attendants are learning to punch obnoxious customers

I volunteered as an “attacker” for a women’s self defence course at college, even all padded up it was relatively easy to turn a hip to avoid the full blooded swing at the groin from distance but not so easy for a close attack to loosen a choking hold. There are easier and more stunning strikes but I imagine that the emphasis is on avoiding injury over disabling an attacker since the victim would hopefully have swift assistance from other crew and passengers.
