A violent altercation between two families on a July 3 flight led to an emergency landing just 36 minutes after departure.
According to an unnamed passenger speaking to The U.S. Sun, “It was like the flight from hell. And it all escalated from that one passenger wanting to change seats.”
The incident took place on an evening Ryanair flight from Agadir, Morocco, to London. Passengers reported to The Sun that the brawl began when a man in his 20s asked a woman to swap seats so he could sit with his family. The woman, already seated with her daughter, refused the request, prompting the man to start threatening her.
