PERTH: An unruly airline passenger has been ordered by an Australia n court to pay a hefty sum for his disruptive behaviour during a flight from Perth to Sydney, which forced the plane to turn back to Perth, necessitating a fuel dump before landing.
Reports from Australian news outlets suggest the incident occurred on a Jetstar flight, a subsidiary of Qantas.“This incident should serve as a warning that criminal behaviour on board can come at a heavy cost to the offender,” said Australian Federal Police Acting Superintendent Shona Davis. Charging a disruptive traveller for the cost of fuel is unusual; fines for poor in-flight behaviour are more common.
The most severe penalty recorded was US$40,823 for a passenger who brought their own alcohol on board, became intoxicated, attempted to smoke marijuana in the toilet and sexually assaulted a flight attendant – all during a single flight. Such cases are also reported to the Department of Justice. The International Air Transport Association has long highlighted the issue of disruptive passengers. In 2017, there was one incident for every 1,053 flights.
