San Francisco (USA) - Flight attendants made short work of an angry Australian woman on a flight from San Francisco (California, USA ) to Nadi (Fiji). As reported by"news.com.au", they quickly tied up the aggressive woman (69) with duct tape!

According to the report, the incident occurred on Fiji Airways flight FJ871 last Saturday, January 18 (local time). A passenger said the situation occurred about halfway through the nearly 11-hour flight to Nadi. A woman had begun to behave aggressively and had started shouting.

The trigger for her outburst was apparently her husband, who asked for a different seat after they had apparently had an argument. When the crew allegedly refused to tell the passenger where her husband was sitting, the woman became even angrier.

An unpleasant conflict broke out for the other passengers and the board crew. A fellow passenger filmed parts of the incident and stated that the woman made racist and vulgar remarks.

She also threatened the staff and threw things at them. The crew then tried to restrain the woman with adhesive tape and apparently also taped her mouth shut.

On arrival at the destination airport, the police took charge of the woman who, according to the authorities, was "drunk and causing a nuisance". The incident is now being investigated by the airline.
