Man Causes Chaos on Plane by Vaping and Urinating
According to Elperiodico, a 52-year-old man was reported to have been vaping an e-cigarette on a flight to Melbourne. He further instigated the situation by urinating in his seat. The incident occurred during takeoff from the Gold Coast, prompting Australian authorities to take strict action.
The airplane had to be diverted back to the terminal due to the unruly behavior of a man. He was seen smoking an e-cigarette in his seat and when the flight crew requested him to stop, he responded by arguing and proceeded to urinate on the empty seat behind him. This incident has been confirmed by Agence France-Presse (AFP).
Josh Kinghorn, a senior official at Gold Coast Airport, expressed his deep shock at the disturbing behavior observed on board the aircraft.
The man was arrested by Australian authorities and is charged with creating a disturbance on an airplane, failing to obey safety instructions from the crew, and smoking on board.
The hearing for this case has been scheduled for February 5, 2024, at the Southport Magistrates Court. At that time, he will face a maximum penalty of AUD 13,750, which will be imposed for each violation he has committed.
