A TUI flight bound for Tenerife experienced an unusual pre-flight announcement when the captain addressed a group of rowdy passengers before takeoff, reminding them of the ground rules for behavior on board.
The incident occurred on August 9 on a TUI 787 flight departing from Glasgow Airport. A video filmed by a fellow passenger captured the moment the captain took to the intercom to deliver a nearly two-minute address, urging everyone on board to adhere to the airline’s safety and conduct guidelines.
In his announcement, the captain emphasized the importance of maintaining a respectful and orderly environment during the flight. He reminded passengers of the potential consequences of disruptive behavior, including being met by authorities upon arrival.
Following the captain’s firm yet polite reminder, the flight proceeded without any further incidents, and there were no reports of disruptive behaviour during the journey to Tenerife, Spain.
The video, which has since circulated on social media, has been met with widespread approval from viewers, many of whom praised the captain for his proactive approach in ensuring the safety and comfort of all passengers on board.
The TUI flight successfully reached its destination without any further issues, and the incident serves as a reminder of the challenges flight crews can face in managing large groups of travellers, particularly during peak holiday seasons.
