Flight attendant found naked, dancing in bathroom after going missing
A British Airways crew member was found dancing naked in a business class toilet at 30,000ft. The steward is suspected of using drugs before the incident, which happened as he was supposed to be serving an in-flight meal. Colleagues searched the aircraft when he went missing as they handed out food and drinks on the busy jet to London's Heathrow from the US. The in-flight crew boss was then stunned to find him completely naked and jigging up and down in the Club World cabin loo. He was bundled into a spare pair of pyjamas reserved for First Class passengers on the flight from San Francisco. The steward was then escorted to the First Class cabin, where he was buckled into a luxury seat for the remainder of the ten-and-a-half hour journey. BA bosses alerted police, who met the double-decker Airbus A380-800 on landing at 11am loca; time last Sunday to arrest him. He also received medical attention and was taken from the plane — which had around 470 passengers and crew on board — in a wheelchair. Angry crew members had to work the entire flight without breaks to cover for him. The steward was suspended from duty while investigations continue. One worker said: 'We think the guy popped pills when he was meant to be working. It is an extraordinary thing to do. 'The plane was cruising at 37,000ft over the Atlantic, but this bloke seemed to be higher than anyone else. 'Rather than asking passengers 'chicken or beef', he was stripping off and dancing in the toilet. It was a long time before he was located and he was completely out of it. 'Not only is it really dangerous, it is a crazy way to end your BA career. This job can do ridiculous things to people, but staging a one-man disco in a Club World toilet is a new one on me.' British Airways said it is a police matter. Scotland Yard was approached for comment.

Britney Spears Given Warning After Lighting Cigarette on Flight — and It's Not the First Time (Exclusive Source)
Britney Spears' latest vacation ended on a sour note when the singer was reprimanded for her in-flight behavior. Multiple sources confirmed to PEOPLE that while traveling from Cabo San Lucas to Los Angeles with her security, the "Toxic" singer was drinking alcohol and lit a cigarette during the flight, which is a violation of federal aviation regulations. The move alarmed flight attendants on the charter plane, who insisted that Spears, 43, put out the cigarette — which she did. Regardless, authorities were contacted mid-flight. When the plane landed in LAX, Spears was met by authorities and warned about her in-flight conduct, and was then free to leave, PEOPLE has learned. "This is not her first warning," a source tells PEOPLE exclusively. "She doesn't exactly follow the rules." JSX, the public charter operator that Spears was aboard, has no comment regarding the incident, while a rep for Spears did not return a request for comment. TMZ was first to report the news. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Spears was under a conservatorship for 13 years following mental health concerns after a series of troubling incidents in the early 2000s. Her father Jamie served as the conservator of her estate. She successfully petitioned the court to terminate the conservatorship in November 2021. Since the conservatorship ended, Spears has released her best-selling memoir, The Woman in Me. In the tell-all book, she spoke about her childhood, her relationship with Justin Timberlake, dancing with a snake during the 2001 MTV VMAs and other anecdotes about her life in the spotlight. Ahead of Spears' book release, the singer exclusively told PEOPLE about moving on from the conservatorship that oversaw her life from 2008 to 2021. "Over the past 15 years or even at the start of my career, I sat back while people spoke about me and told my story for me,' she said about reclaiming her voice. 'After getting out of my conservatorship, I was finally free to tell my story without consequences from the people in charge of my life," Spears added. Read the original article on People
