MP slams drunken passengers who delay easyJet Glasgow flight
02.08.10
A group of drunken lads on their way to Ibiza for a stag holiday caused havoc at Glasgow Airport when their behaviour caused the flight to be grounded for several hours. Their actions have been slammed by an angry MP, who was one of the passengers delayed by their antics.
Holidaymakers on board the easyJet flight to the sunshine island were reeling on Saturday evening as police were called to deal with the ‘paralytic’ party. Hundreds of passengers were held up when their flight was forced to return to the terminal from the runway, when members of the 15-strong group refused to sit down for take-off.
Police officers then entered the plane and removed two of the men, who were said to have been behaving aggressively – but neither was arrested. Michael McCann, MP for East Kilbride, was amongst the angry passengers and has said that he plans to complain to Strathclyde Police, BAA, and easyJet about the incident. He said the airline and police should have taken tougher action on the drunks who ruined travel plans for innocent members of the public.
