This is the moment a tourist had an oh-so-public breakdown after she was blocked from boarding a flight.
Airport staff at Milan Malpensa Airport in Italy stopped the tourist over the weight of her hand luggage on June 8.
Her carry-on suitcase was too heavy to take on board and she was ordered to pay extra or throw away some contents.
What followed was an airport tantrum more akin to a child being told they can’t have their favourite sweet treat.
Footage shows the middle-aged woman sobbing and crying, all while flapping her hands in the air.
Authorities struggled to get a handle on the situation and she was booted from the flight.
The tourist rebooked a new ticket for the following day once she had calmed down.
But trouble-making passengers aren’t exclusive to the ground.
One nightmare passenger was hauled off a Ryanair flight from Tenerife after she was allegedly aggressive to other passengers and made a bomb threat.
The flight from the Spanish island to Prestwick on May 18 had to be diverted to Faro in Portugal after things got out of hand.
One man thought he had escaped trouble until a passenger vomited on him moments before they were due to take off on a 13-hour trip from Taiwan to Austria.
Someone on the flight told local media: ‘The cabin door was already closed, and then that person started vomiting.
‘There was an older man on his right, and when he saw him vomiting, he immediately stood up.
‘The flight attendants later helped move that older man’s seat, but that whole row was then blocked off and no one could sit there.’
