Sunwing Airlines flight escorted by F-15s due to unruly passenger
I'm thinking someone was hitting the sauce a little hard on their way to the all-inclusive.

The Delta story is definitely better. Two bottles of wine over the head haha.
Seems that people are definitely still not interested in being part of a hijacked jet.

Just saw that one. I clicked the link and read "A 23-year-old male passenger from Florida..." and thought "say no more."

A bunch of years ago in the 70's an Ethiopian airline flight got hijacked. At least I think it was Ethiopian.
Anyways they overpowered the hijacker, cleared the front of the plane. Tied him to his seat. Put a towel around his neck and cut his throat.

Rubecube's link said it. "Passenger Dustin Jones said the man continued to fight even as he was ziptied to a wheelchair."

That airline always has security on board. They've killed something like 15 would be hijackers over the years and still average a hijacking every 5
