This was obviously a high profile new story here last week. Very glad to see it wasn't a lead in story though - they hype could have done even more damage.
After watching ti my husband and I were talking, as you do, and it seems the man was drunk before getting on the plane. Bear in mind that Garuda leaves Perth at 7am. I am pretty sure he had flown in from Sydney.
It makes you wonder when their are idiots like this around and the fact we're talking about a confined space, whether air flights should be alcohol free zones. Yep I know spoils the fun for the rest of us but alcohol fuels idiots and up there in the air there is no where to go.
