'Feral' Brit filmed attempting to provoke fellow passenger on busy Jet2 flight
A British passenger caused chaos onboard a Jet2 flight after guzzling down a bottle of vodka onboard. He was heard yelling at fellow passengers and flight staff
Shocking footage has captured the moment that a drunken Brit allegedly turned "feral" onboard a Jet2 flight to Ibiza.
The video was reportedly filmed onboard the Jet2 flight LS1181 from Birmingham last Friday, June 13. The pilot is said to have delayed departure by two and a half hours, with the flight initially set to leave at 6.15pm. But holidaymakers were not allowed to board the plane until 7pm, which is when they were informed about further delays.
According to one passenger, named CJ Edwards, a fellow traveller got out a bottle of vodka and downed it within 10 seconds. Things went from bad to worse when he reportedly became disruptive and allegedly began to goad another person who was sat in their seat.
In the clip, the man, who was dressed in a green matching set, began to throw clothes at another person onboard. He was also recorded shouting at cabin crew. Edwards, who uploaded the incident on TikTok, revealed how several passengers caused issues onboard the plane.
He said: "People were drinking and doing all sorts, and what I want to say is that it wasn't just him. There were a lot of things going on. There was a fight on the plane, someone got slapped, someone was sick in the aisles. My friend had sick on his shoe. People were passing drinks over each other.
"There was a lot going on. So when we got on the flight and told we can't move, the guy took his bottle of Ciroc out that he'd got from duty free and, I'm not lying, he's guzzled it down in about 10 seconds." Edwards added that it was at this point he knew he didn't want to be "anywhere near" the man and relocated to the rear of the plane to join a friend.
Despite the pre-flight commotion, Mr Edwards confirmed that the plane eventually departed - flight records indicate this was at 8.44pm - amid significant turbulence, reports Mail Online. He added: "And when it's doing all of this in the air the man is standing up. He's doing the most. He was coming to the back of the plane where I was, trying to get some drink off people and chat with some lads. When the air hostess told him to sit down he's looked in her face and said 'But who are you? Who are you to tell me to sit down?'
"After all that when we're trying to land he's standing up again. He's in the aisles, moving through. People are trying to get him to sit down and he's not doing it. The pilot is on the microphone saying 'to the guy standing up, please sit down'. I think the person he was with as well that he ended up slapping them but I'm not too sure. It was the flight from hell."
A Jet2 spokesperson said: "The customer has been banned for life. As a family friendly airline we take a zero-tolerance approach to disruptive passenger behaviour."
