Airline Bans Drunk Passenger Who Screamed At Crew For Not Serving Pepsi

A drunk Spanish woman's meltdown on board a TAP Air flight to Malaga, Spain, from Lisbon went viral and she was banned for the airline, according to the Daily Mail. The video shows the unidentified woman screaming after the crew told her they could not serve Pepsi.

Shortly after the woman boarded the hour-and-a-half-long flight, she began taking shots from a hip flask while demanding the crew serve her Pepsi. When attendants informed her they would only be serving fruit juice, she became outraged and aggressive.

“She was getting out of her seat, her face was bright red,” a male passenger on the same flight told the Daily Mail.“Her hands had turned into claws. She looked like a demon. She was the worst passenger I have ever seen on an airline and I fly quite a lot.” The passenger, who said he never had seen "anything like it," added that the woman was drunk before she boarded, and continued to drink throughout the flight.

“We were all like why is she so insistent on [the Pepsi], but it turned out it was because she wanted to mix it,” he said. “She was the last one to board, everyone was waiting and she was at the front of the plane.”

The man went on to say that the woman also got into an argument with a flight attendant about putting her bag in the cargo hold.

“Stewardesses were telling her you have to put it away but she was like 'no.' She started speaking English and said 'I have my books, I have my jewelry, I have my money in there — I need my bag,” he said. “But this lady was out of control, she was drunk, she was aggressive, she was abusive, she was chucking food, she wanted her bag, she wasn't taking any notice of airline safety procedures and she just got let on [the flight]... She started screaming more. She was jibbering that her house was in Spain and that she was Spanish.”

After the plane landed, police arrived and questioned the woman. The captain of the flight also reportedly told the woman she was permanently banned from flying TAP Air. However, the airline has not released any official statement regarding the incident or the ban on the woman.
