FlyGlobespan Passenger Snorts Cocaine Off Tray Table

July 17, 2007 at 11:09 AM | by markj | 2 Comments

More trouble for the fledgling Scottish airline FlyGlobespan -- A teenager was reportedly arrested at Edinburgh airport today after snorting cocaine off the tray table of a FlyGlobespan plane while awaiting takeoff.

The plane was heading from Edinburgh to--wait for it--Ibiza. However, before the plane could take off, officials boarded the plane, questioned passengers, and took a few suspects off the plane so sniffer dogs could search them.

FlyGlobespan officials had this to say:

Following a complaint, a senior stewardess told the captain who immediately aborted take-off. The passenger in question was removed.

The beleaguered start up low cost airline, and its customers, have endured extraordinary delays this summer at many of their destination airports, and according to reports, some recently stranded JFK passengers are even considering a lawsuit against the airline.

    Then again...

    You'd probably need *something* to make your European LCC flight bearable.
