Troubled AirAsia Passenger Causes Flight Delay

8th Jul 2015

For the past few years, airline news have been making it to the headlines. Stories of air crises, aircraft breakdown, and issues involving passengers don't fail to get the attention of media and the public in general.

Just last week, a lady passenger of an AirAsia local carrier has made a scene which has kept cabin crew on their toes for a while.

The female passenger which appeared to be troubled stood up and ordered the crew to abort flight FD3245. She also told everyone on board to leave the plane.

The aircraft was scheduled to ferry said passenger along with other passengers from Don Mueang Airport to Trang Province.

The plane was already taxiing towards the airport's runway when the said passenger started yelling, ordering people on board to get out and stop the plane.

One of the passengers caught the scene on video. The controversial video file was uploaded on Youtube and has so far elicited more than 200,000 views.

Fortunately, passengers of said flight kept their cool as it was quite obvious that the female passenger was psychologically unstable.

Based on the posted video, cabin crew tried their best to pacify said passenger who finally agreed to return to her seat when her flight companion came to her aid.

Before resuming the flight, said female passenger and her companion were requested to step down from the plane as a precautionary measure.

Consequently, the aircraft took-off an hour late but was able to reach Trang without further disruptions.
