Airliner hell as 40 passengers - many drunk - 'run amok' on flight from Gatwick to Cuba
By Mail Foreign Service

More than 40 passengers ran riot on a Thomas Cook flight from London Gatwick to Cuba, with one trying to open the emergency exit in mid-flight.
On the return flight on December 30, the same group were again drunk and 17 were stopped from reboarding for the second leg of their trip at Cuba's Varadero airport.
Police met their flight at Gatwick and Thomas Cook is investigating events with a view to a possible complaint to police.
The passengers, thought to be from Ireland, are said to have 'run amok' on the flight to Holguin in Cuba on December 16.
They are alleged to have caused more drunken mayhem at their all-inclusive hotel in the resort of Playa Pesquero.
Dozens of fellow holidaymakers complained about their behaviour on the outward flight and at the resort.
Fellow passenger Sue Brown, of Worcester Park, Surrey, said: 'On the outward flight, they were smoking, allowing children to run up and down and ignoring all instructions from the crew.'
She added: 'One of the children thumped a passenger for no reason. I was so scared that I left my seat and sat in the galley with the crew for five hours.' |
This makes Soul Plane seem tame in comparison. |

Man if somebody tried to open the emergency exit on a flight I was on they'd find themselves stabbed with a makeshift Heiniken can knife. Seriously. I have tolerated some pretty bad behaviour on airplanes, but I couldn't stand for that. |

Some Canadian retard tried that on a flight back to Canada from Domenica or something. Yeah the passengers tackled him and tied him up with his own belt. |

I've never really given it much thought but, if there is one door in the world that one isn't just able to just walk right up to and open, I hope it would be the door of a 767 in mid flight. |

Cheap airfares have their downside. |

I used to think rock stars on airplanes were bad. |
