RE: Astraeus 737 diverted after fans ‘riot’
Hey SAAB,
A few old adages:
1, Never believe what you read.
2, There are always 2 sides to every story.
3, Innocent until proven guilty.
Don’t get me wrong, if what is being reported actually happened then your reaction is, I think justified, but just remember those that are, in the main reporting this (the media) were not there…..
According to passenger Steve Prince, the situation was not so bad as to deserve the term “riot”.
The problem began when the pilot told passengers they would be detained on the runway at Glasgow, he said.
“After that, there was a discussion between one of the passengers and the cabin crew – it was a little bit heated but not too bad,” he said.
“One of the passengers leaned over and tapped one of the cabin crew on the shoulder.
“The next thing, we were descending at a rapid rate and heading to Cardiff.
“I’m a little surprised to hear there had been a riot on board. There were not any fierce postures taken.”
He claimed “no alcohol whatsoever” had been sold or consumed on the plane.
