WATCH: Fight Breaks Out On Ryanair Flight Over ‘Woman Not Wearing Her Shoes’

Kiara Keane

A brawl that broke out on a Ryanair flight ended up with the plane being “covered in blood” and two men getting arrested.

A video of the fight that happened on a flight from Glasgow Prestwick to Tenerife shows passengers shouting as two men fight and a flight attendant attempts to break them up.

Ben Wardrop, who filmed and tweeted a video of the fight, told The Independent that it “all started over a woman not wearing her shoes on the flight” after a drunk passenger called her out on it and her boyfriend decided to defend her.

He added, “Once the plane landed and more alcohol was consumed the man and the woman’s boyfriend started arguing, both being very drunk they started to fight, and the man in the video with lots of blood was trying to get the man to calm down and he got hit on the nose.”

One of the men ended up covered in blood, which was also said to have been spattered across the cabin of the plane.

A Ryanair spokesperson said, “The crew of this flight from Glasgow Prestwick to Tenerife requested police assistance upon arrival after two passengers became disruptive in-flight.

“The aircraft landed normally and police removed and detained two individuals.

“We will not tolerate unruly or disruptive behaviour at any time and the safety and comfort of our customers, crew and aircraft is our number one priority. This is now a matter for local police.”
