Watch as woman SLAPS Jet2 cabin crew in rage after he took away her G&T when she moaned about not getting free booze
THIS is the shocking moment a woman SLAPPED a Jet2 employee after he allegedly took her gin and tonic off her when she moaned about not getting free booze.
Cabin crew were forced to divert the Manchester to Rhodes flight on Monday so they could offload the woman to police in Germany.
The grey haired woman, who appears to be in her 70s, was allegedly irate after having her request for free champagne rejected.
She was then said to have ordered a gin and tonic which was then taken away by cabin crew after she continued to be aggressive.
Video shows a male member of staff leaning over into a row of seats near the front of the plane and trying to calm the woman down.
He then attempts to restrain her arms which are violently flailing around before sitting down in the seat next to her.

However he is forced to jump up as she attempts to lash out again and hits him across the head.
The disruptive passenger then bonks her own head on the overhead locker before hitting the man across the face twice.
Another member of staff helps restrain the woman who falls back into her seat before the clip ends.
Another passenger, who wished to remain anonymous, said the woman also urinated in her seat before being escorted off the plane in Germany by nine police officers.

Speaking today, the passenger said: “A woman on the flight repeatedly asked the flight attendants for free champagne.
“The flight attendant told the woman that wasn’t part of the service and she bought a gin and tonic in the end.
“She began to get aggressive so the flight attendant removed her drink.
“She started swearing and having violent outbursts. At one point she got up and tried to open the cabin door mid flight.
“At this point she was sat back down with two male passengers trying to hold her down as she was punching people.
“She urinated over three seats and repeatedly had bursts of violent episodes until we had to make an emergency landing in Munich.
“Upon arrival at Munich she was escorted off the plane by around 9 police officers along with an ambulance and fire services.
“We were in Germany for over two hours.
“Jet2 handled this situation really well and the captain of the plane gave everyone complimentary drinks.”
The passenger posted the video on TikTok last night where it has collected over 25,000 views and comments from shocked viewers.
One said: “Well that’s a blacklist right there. Good luck with them getting on another flight.”
Another wrote: “Too much wine. Lol”
A third added: “Nah as if it was an OAP haha.”
A fourth replied: “Welcome to the no fly list.”
A fifth commented: “Disgusting and unacceptable behaviour anywhere especially in a flight, what the hell is wrong with people?”
A Jet2 spokesperson today said: “We can confirm that flight LS819 from Manchester to Rhodes was diverted to Munich Airport yesterday so that a disruptive passenger could be offloaded.
“We would like to apologise to customers for this unforeseen delay and any inconvenience caused.
