BENGALURU: An intoxicated passenger, who got into a brawl with the crew on board IndiGo flight 6E 6912 between Bengaluru and Nagpur, was deboarded on Wednesday. As a result, the flight, meant to depart at 8.55pm, left only at 9.45pm.
The passenger had allegedly misbehaved with the staff after the boarding process was completed.
“The passenger did not show any signs of intoxication at the time of boarding. Upon boarding the flight, however, he got into an argument with a crew member and caused inconvenience to other passengers,” an IndiGo spokesperson told TOI.
Rahul Thakurta, a passenger, tweeted: “On flight #6e6912, and an intoxicated passenger gets off-loaded at Bangalore who misbehaved with the staff. #Thanks for flying us safely to our destinations. A delay is better than a brawl mid-flight.”
