A holidaymaker has recounted their 'flight from hell' after his plane was forced to divert after a drunk couple allegedly smoking cigarettes in the toilets. The plane was travelling from Liverpool John Lennon airport to Tenerife before it had to go to Portugal due to the antics of the couple.
Hans Mahrla was travelling on his first holiday abroad since the start of the pandemic but sadly his plane was forced to divert to Lisbon in Portugal. It is claimed a couple who got drunk began smoking in the plane toilets before abusing their fellow passengers and airline staff, reports the Liverpool Echo.
Mr Mahrla, who is from Ormskirk, said the behaviour was 'shameful' and those travelling on the plane experienced 'the flight from hell.' Everything appeared to be fine with the pilot saying the flight was ahead of schedule before the couple began their antics.
