A ‘boozed-up’ bloke on a Jet2 flight from Belfast to Fuerteventura appears to have been pinned down by fellow passengers when he starting screaming about ‘the Lord Jesus’
Passengers and crew on a Jet2 flight were forced to tackle an alleged boozed-up bloke who started screaming bloody murder about “the Lord Jesus” mid-flight from Belfast to Fuerteventura.
A viral clip shared on TikTok shows the man yelling from his seat while two passengers try to calm him down. One can be heard reminding him he’s “on a plane” as he carries on with his garbled rant. The video of the March 1 flight was uploaded a couple of days after the incident. The Jet2 passenger who filmed it slammed what they called “drunken behaviour”.
They ripped into the passenger for kicking off in front of kids, with some commenters saying he should be “banned from flying”.
The caption on the video read: “This is what happens when people drink themselves to oblivion. These crew members were outstanding.
“This is not the half of it. These crew members went above and beyond to deal with this and these guys held him down.”
Another caption praised the staff and suggested the man had drunk himself “to oblivion”. The mayhem on Jet2 flight LS307 lasted about an hour, according to the video.
Commenters reckoned the rowdy passenger should be “banned from flying” after the incident. The viral video has racked up hundreds of comments.
One said: “All alcohol should be banned at airports and on flights.”
Another user chimed in: “Feel sorry for the children all alcohol should be banned on.”
One vexed traveller said: “Absolutely awful to see this happen so often. I don’t think banning alcohol is the only solution. Maybe limit purchases – why should people who can be responsible be penalised for the minority?”
Meanwhile, another miffed jet-setter chimed in with: “Absolutely awful to see this happen so often but I don’t think banning alcohol is the only solution.”
They suggested: “Maybe limit purchases – why should people who can be responsible be penalised for the minority.”
