Once again, the skies witnessed an inconsiderate plane passenger's antics, this time at Canberra Airport in Australia. A female traveler, desperate not to miss her flight to Adelaide, dashed past security and onto the tarmac, attempting to flag down the departing QantasLink flight. Onlookers were astonished by her audacious attempt, likening the scene to a romantic comedy where a character tries to stop a loved one from leaving.
Thankfully, the pilot halted the plane, and the unruly passenger was apprehended by the Australian Federal Police. She was charged with two counts of damaging property, one count of entering a security zone without permission and one count of possessing a small quantity of cannabis. The incident caused a 10-minute delay for all flights, but operations have since returned to normal, reminiscent of a similar incident in July where a passenger demanded a plane turnaround because he forgot his bag at the airport.
