Ire In the Sky

Two days, two impossibly bizarre tales of aerial hijinx.

A British holiday plane was diverted to France after a couple became embroiled in a "drunken" air-rage fight at 35,000ft over the Mediterranean.

Eyewitnesses said the woman passenger "took a bite out of the face" of her boyfriend or husband.
...
One eyewitness said: "A couple who had too much to drink had a real set-to. They were in their late 20s. She bit him on the face and took a chunk out of his cheek. The crew tried to restrain them but they were mainly female.

"Two off-duty police officers joined in to help when they saw what was happening.

"The Captain ordered both the man and the woman to be restrained but it looked like there was only one restraint. The plane diverted to Lyon where they were arrested and detained by the local gendarmes."
