An apparently intoxicated United Airlines passenger picked a very bad place to become belligerent, prompting the captain to warn passengers to “protect the flight deck at all costs” before fellow travelers ultimately wrestled him down and restrained him.
Video from the flight shows an apparently intoxicated passenger arguing with both the flight attendants and his own father as the situation steadily escalated. A flight attendant initially tried to reason with him, warning that his behavior was unacceptable, that he had been drinking, and that restraints would be used if he did not calm down. She also pointed out that his father was sitting there watching the entire spectacle.
That didn’t help.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Live and Let's Fly.
