Police escort four on EasyJet flight at Birmingham Airport
Summary
On Sunday, September 16, four adults were escorted off an easyJet flight at Birmingham Airport by police after repeatedly attempting to vape onboard despite multiple warnings from cabin crew. The flight EZY6610 was traveling from Larnaca, Cyprus, to Birmingham Airport. Passenger Annalise Galstaun, seated two rows behind the group, reported that the individuals ignored warnings and hid their vapes behind their legs throughout the five-hour journey. Police boarded the aircraft upon arrival and escorted the four individuals off, causing a 25-minute delay on the tarmac while children cried onboard due to the late hour (around 11pm). easyJet confirmed the incident, stating that cabin crew are trained to act quickly and appropriately to ensure flight safety is not compromised, and that the safety and wellbeing of customers and crew is always the airline's highest priority.
