Shocking video shows the moment a lady launched a foul mouthed racist tirade while on a flight.
The girl, in her 50s, could be seen shouting at fellow passengers and using racist language during a flight from Belfast to Manchester on Friday.
Witness Shauna Corr, 44, said: “The woman involved was a couple of rows in front of me — I felt very sorry for the couple sat behind her and youngsters on the flight.
“Her language was atrocious and racist, she was making very derogatory comments about people including muslims — at one stage she even struck out at Ukrainian people.”
Within the video, the girl is chastised by several passengers telling her to be quiet.
At one point a steward reprimands her for her language and warns her that he’ll call the police if she continues.
The girl continues swearing and shouting and is eventually escorted off the plane.
Corr said: “She was just kicking off but I feel the stewards handled it very well — it was quite disgusting behavior.”
Corr said the girl’s unruly behavior began midway through the flight, and he or she even stole some Tayto crisps from a flight attendant without paying.
Corr said: “Once I first heard it I believed it was a child!
“Nevertheless it escalated towards the top of the flight.
“I feel the actual fact it was a middle aged woman shocked people – it’s not the style of behaviour you expect from anyone let alone a middle aged woman.”
A spokesperson for Easyjet said: “Flight EZY714 from Belfast City to Manchester on 17 January was met by police on arrival attributable to a passenger behaving disruptively onboard.
“EasyJet’s cabin crew are trained to evaluate and evaluate all situations and acted quickly and appropriately to be sure that the protection of the flight and other passengers was not compromised at any time.
“Whilst such incidents are rare we take them very seriously and don’t tolerate abusive or threatening behavior onboard.
“The security and wellbeing of our passengers and crew is all the time easyJet’s priority.”
A spokesperson for Greater Manchester Police said: “At around 8:50pm yesterday evening (Friday 17 January 2025), we were called to reports of a lady being drunk and disorderly onboard an aircraft flying from Belfast in Northern Ireland to Manchester Airport.
“Upon the plane returning to Manchester Airport, a lady in her 50s was arrested on suspicion of being drunk onboard an aircraft and was taken into custody where she stays for questioning.”
