Shocking! Drunk man allegedly pees on woman's seat in AI flight

NEW DELHI: Air India is likely to put the man who allegedly urinated on a woman co-passenger’s seat aboard its New York-Delhi flight on Thursday (August 30) on no fly list. The airline said “details of the incident are being sent to appropriate authorities for probe, and, possibly put the passenger on no fly list”.A drunk passenger on Air India’s New York-Delhi flight this Thursday (August 30) allegedly urinated on a seat where a lady was seated. The lady passenger’s family says that no action as taken against the man after the aircraft landed in Delhi and he just walked away.Indrani Ghosh, the traumatised woman passenger’s New York-based daughter tweeted from her handle @indranidreams, to aviation ministers Suresh Prabhu and Jayant Sinha saying: “AI 102 JFK to Delhi, seat 36-D. My mother traveling alone had to face extreme shock and trauma when a drunk passenger post dinner service fumbled across to her seat removed his pants and urinated on her seat! Please look into urgently… peed on the seat my mother was sitting!!! She was traveling alone and is completely traumatized! Reply ASAP.”Asked on twitter how did AI crew handle the situation, Ghosh wrote: “Except for giving her another seat, nothing else that we know of yet!” She added that after deboarding, while her mother was waiting in her wheelchair at Delhi airport for her connecting flight, she “saw him walk away”. According to her Twitter account, Ghosh is a Manhattan-based yoga teacher and lawyer.Jayant Sinha tweeted to Ghosh and AI, saying: “Please follow up immediately and report back to aviation ministry / DGCA. Very unfortunate that your mother had to go through this harrowing experience.”Condemning this incident, AI said in a tweet: “Our sincere apologies to passengers of the flight inconvenienced by this act. Our cabin crew promptly went all out to alleviate the inconvenience of the passenger from the moment the incident occurred till the flight touched down at Delhi. While an airline has no control over the behaviour of an individual passenger, our crew are trained to handle any situation with utmost care and concern.”Details of the alleged incident and the action taken by AI were sought from the airline at the time of filing this story which will be updated once they do so.Ghosh wants AI to take strictest possible action against the drunk passenger. Sources say the airline is taking this complaint very seriously and has begun a probe. It will take action at the earliest, says a source.“When I called to make a complaint the usual call centre guy following the script asked me to go to the website and write a feedback!! Really FEEDBACK!… Don’t you think by not taking action against such behavior the airline is giving him a free pass!!? By reporting such obscene and offensive behavior the airline can stop such person creating nuisance in future,” Ghosh said in a series of tweets.India now has a no fly list and disruptive passengers can be barred from flying for varying periods of time depending on the gravity of their onboard unruly behaviour. Till now only Jet Airways has put a passenger flying on a Mumbai-Delhi flight on this list.
