Passenger Removed From Plane After Peeing On His Brother Mid-Flight

A video has surfaced of an intoxicated passenger being escorted off a plane by Greek officers after the passenger peed on his brother and incited a mid-flight brawl.

The incident occurred earlier last month on a Jet2 aircraft from London to the Greek island of Crete, but a smartphone recording of the brothers’ altercation finally surfaced on Wednesday.

The TikToker who recorded the incident captioned the video: “Jet2 flight fight after one drunken brother pisses on the other cos he’s too drunk to walk to toilets.”

In the video, police are seen taking a man down the aisle towards the exit, but his face isn’t visibly seen. Instead, you could see that the passenger wearing a white tank shirt pulled up to his chest, revealing his back.

According to a witness, the flight crew discovered one empty bottle of Ciroc Vodka and a half-empty bottle under the brothers’ seats.

The witness said a flight attendant alerted the cabin crew before the flight took off from London Stansted Airport and said she had issued the first warning to one of the Springthorpe brothers “due to his inappropriateness about her lips.”

“About two and a half hours into the flight, I was waiting to go to the toilet, and the older brother stood up but was so drunk he couldn’t stand. He needed the loo, but in his drunken state peed over the younger brother who then hit him, resulting in a full fist fight,” the witness reported.

Before the Springthorpes were separated, a woman sitting in front of them with her infant was hit in the scuffle.

They said, “The cabin crew called for male passengers to come and assist by sitting around them.”

Eventually, the flight was redirected to the Greek island of Corfu so that the local authorities could remove Alfie and Kenneth from the plane. The older brother was handcuffed and pulled off the plane because he refused to leave and couldn’t stand on his own.

“The younger brother just kept saying ‘he p—ed on me. What I was supposed to do’ and was quite upset and apologetic,” the passenger recounted.

Airline reps said the Springthorpes “displayed a catalog of appalling behavior onboard the aircraft which included causing damage and unacceptable levels of aggression and even physical violence.”

According to Jet2, the brothers’ antics caused a three-and-a-half-hour delay before the flight continued to Crete.

In a statement, Jet2 said the passengers Alfie and Kenneth Springthorpe were fined over $63,000 and given a lifetime ban for their “aggressive and violent behavior.”

“The deplorable behavior of these two passengers left our highly trained crew with no choice but to divert the aircraft to the nearest airport so that the police could offload them,” stated Phil Ward, managing director of Jet2.com. “This means that their actions directly impacted customers looking forward to enjoying their well-deserved holidays in Crete and customers and crew who then had to stay in a hotel for an unwanted extra night.”

He said, “It is completely unacceptable that the pair caused such disruption for so many people, and they must now face the consequences of their actions.”

According to reports, the airline had to provide hotel accommodations, transportation to and from the Crete airport, and food and drink for more than 200 passengers and staff.
