A “mass brawl” between passengers onboard a Ryanair “flight from hell” caused the pilot to make an emergency landing after taking off in a seemingly never-ending chaotic scene ignited by a man asking to switch his seat.
The London Stansted Airport-bound flight departed from Agadir, Morocco, on Wednesday when the chaos erupted at 30,000 feet in the air, The Sun reported.
Startling video obtained by the outlet shows passengers screaming at each other from across the plane as panic-stricken airline staff try their best to calm down the unhinged travelers.
Tensions began festering before takeoff when a man in his late 20s reportedly asked a woman sitting with her daughter if he could take her seat to be with his wife and kids.
The woman allegedly refused to make the switch, which prompted the unhinged man to start threatening her, The Sun reported.
The flight was only in the air for “36 minutes” when the plane was forced to make the “unexpected landing,” the unnamed passenger, described only as a finance worker from Hertfordshire, UK, shared.
It took over two hours for the chaos to subside.
Unfortunately for the 200 remaining passengers, the Ryanair crew had reached their maximum flying hours because of the ordeal.
