Air passenger warned for urinating in aisle

Posted 30/06/2011

A drunken air passenger has been cautioned by an airline after urinating in a plane aisle, spraying fellow travellers.

The unnamed man was travelling between Auckland and Sydney on Jetstar when he was caught short and relieved himself in full view.

Passenger Amos Chapple said the inebriated man wet another man’s leg and a female traveller’s scarf. He told the New Zealand Herald: “I hear this sound of running water and then I hear a guy going 'No, no, no, what the hell is wrong with you?' And there's this guy pissing in the aisle, waving back and forth.”

The airline confirmed the incident, saying crew dealt with a passenger who "engaged in inappropriate and disruptive behaviour".

"We can confirm on this occasion, our crew followed all standard procedures including confiscating alcohol brought on board and issuing an onboard warning in conjunction with advice from the captain," the airline said in a statement.

Mr Chapple said he challenged the man on arrival in Singapore but was met with a blank stare as the now sobering passenger admitted he had no memory of the incident.
