Boarding denied: drunk passenger made a scene in the cockpit at Budapest airport

A plane did not take off at Budapest Airport due to a technical issue. An intoxicated passenger went into the cockpit and made a loud scene by yelling. He was eventually escorted out by police.

A Kartago Tours flight to Egypt was taxiing on the runway when the pilot suddenly applied the brakes. The pilot aborted take-off due to a technical problem. The 6 a.m. flight, which was accelerating on the runway, grounded after 20 seconds of heavy braking.

“The passengers were taken back to the transit lounge where they were given food vouchers in accordance with the law,” Kartago Tours told hvg.hu.

One of the passengers got drunk during the 7-hour wait, went into the cockpit and started yelling at the pilots. He was escorted off the plane by airport police. According to Kartago Tours, there were other problems as well: “the passenger in question had to be removed from the aircraft with the help of the police due to his aggressive behaviour.”
