Plane Has To Turn Around Because Of Brawling Passengers
Flying can be a stressful experience, but a group of passengers on a Swiss International Air Lines flight got so agitated, they ended up causing a massive delay for their fellow flyers.
As a flight from Geneva to Algiers was readying for take off, six passengers got into a fight over their seats which quickly got heated and turned into a brawl. After the flight crew’s attempts at calming the group down failed, the plane went back to the terminal. Those six passengers and three additional children were removed from the flight, some in handcuffs.
It didn’t get any better for the remaining 101 people onboard. By the time the very rowdy flyers were gone, it was too late for the flight to take off so instead the passengers were put up in hotels and given flights the next day. At this point it’s unclear if the brawling group will face charges, but they’ve since been questioned and allowed to continue on to Algiers.
