The person filming the video, Ben Wardrop, explained how one drunk male passenger got angry at a woman for not wearing any shoes.
Wardrop wrote on his Twitter page: “A very drunk man pulled her up about it, saying that someone would stand on her toes, then the woman’s boyfriend stepped in and tried to diffuse the situation.”
Unfortunately, it didn’t help.
“Once the plane landed and more alcohol was consumed the man and the woman’s boyfriend started arguing, both being very drunk they started to fight, and the man in the video with lots of blood was trying to get the man to calm down and he got hit on the nose.”
While passengers called for the men to stop fighting, a flight attendant found herself caught in the middle of the fight.
“One of the cabin crew, which was a young woman aged about 24, was caught in the middle of it all and was very scared, but done a good job on defusing the men fighting,” Wardrop said.

Wardrop added: “It was a very scary moment as it was very confined and lots of innocent people got involved due to the small space on the plane.”
“Ryanair’s staff handled the situation very well.”
A Ryanair spokesperson told Express.co.uk: “The crew of this flight from Glasgow Prestwick to Tenerife (16 Mar) requested police assistance upon arrival after two passengers became disruptive in-flight. The aircraft landed normally and police removed and detained two individuals.”
“We will not tolerate unruly or disruptive behavior at any time and the safety and comfort of our customers, crew and aircraft is our number one priority. This is now a matter for local police.”
