United Airlines has apologized after receiving complaints that one of their flight attendants appeared to be inebriated during a flight on Thursday.

A passenger on the flight, en route from Denver to Williston, North Dakota, complained about the employee’s behavior in a since-deleted tweet, writing, “Thanks United, for a terrifying flight! Drunk or stoned stewardess endangered everybody’s lives,” several news outlets reported.

“Boarding announcements were ‘if your seatbelt isn’t tight, you F^*%ed up,'” the passenger wrote, according to NBC Bay Area.

The outlet also reported that the passenger went to the cockpit during the flight to report the attendant’s “out of control” behavior to the pilot, and that police were waiting for her when the flight landed in North Dakota.
