Smoker Tries to Open Aircraft Door In Flight
Nov 22nd, 2005 | By Jared BlankA drunk French passenger on a Cathay Pacific flight from Hong Kong to Brisbane, Australia, tried to open the aircraft door and (I guess) go outside for a smoke. While they were in the air. The passenger was pretty high on a mixture of alcohol and sleeping pills and says she does not remember the incident. Which is exactly what I would say in that situation, assuming the door hadn’t opened, in which case I wouldn’t be saying much of anything. A judge reprimanded her with a not-particularly-stern, ""You must understand, if you are on a plane you must behave yourself."
