Jet2 passenger screams 'where are you taking me' as she's removed from flight

Send Push

Wild footage has emerged showing what is alleged to be an intoxicated passenger causing a commotion on a Jet2 flight to Turkey. Yelling "where are you taking me?" she was escorted off the plane in view of stunned fellow travellers.

The incident prompted the flight, LS781, which was heading to Dalaman from Edinburgh, , on Tuesday evening (October 8) to be re-routed to Cologne to remove two 'disruptive passengers', following disturbances onboard. Sharing footage with Edinburgh Live, the video shows four German police officers boarding the plane and removing the disruptive pair.

A woman said she was innocent, shouting: "I don't know what to do, this is not fair. I've not done anything wrong, where are you taking me."

While being led off the aircraft, the woman bumped into another flyer, prompting an apologetic "Sorry, I'm sorry" before turning her attention back to the rest of the onlookers with a defiant yell of "f*** you all man."

One of the passengers commented on the situation, saying, "The two of them were drunk and warned before we even took off. One spat in the other's face and they had a little scrap", reports .

They added that the crew had pre-warned the rowdy individuals about potential penalties. They said: "They were told by the cabin crew if we need to divert it will cost £20,000."
