Overview
- An easyJet service from Gatwick to Antalya diverted to Kosovo when crew reported severe disruption, and police boarded to remove two passengers.
- The flight reached Turkey about three hours late after officers escorted a man and a woman off the aircraft in Kosovo.
- Passengers said the woman drank vodka from a bottle and spat at another traveler, and the man issued threats and referenced a past jail term.
- Witnesses told UK tabloids the cabin felt chaotic with children crying as bystanders stepped in before the diversion.
- EasyJet restated its zero‑tolerance policy, and coverage noted Jet2 is lobbying for a national database to block repeat offenders across UK airlines.
