Two Indian passengers got into a physical altercation on a Thai Smile Airway flight from Bangkok to Kolkata.
Avideo of two Indian passengers breaking into a full-blown physical fight on an international flight from Bangkok to Kolkata has been going viral on the internet. Two men on a Thai Smile Airway flight argued heatedly before breaking into a fight, with one of them roughing up the other, all while an air hostess tried to deescalate the situation. At one point, one of the men began hitting and slapping the other on the face incessantly, striking panic among the passengers.

Some passengers tried to intervene and at one point, the flight attendant can be heard saying “just stop” on the microphone. A few other passengers also got involved in the fight. The reason for the scuffle is not known. Twitter users have widely criticised the conduct of the two men on the flight, saying it put the safety of other passengers at risk and calling for punishment for the two passengers.
“This person MUST BE IN NO FLY LIST, potential threat to anyone and everyone on board,” wrote one Twitter user. “They should be permanently put on the no-fly list and passports confiscated forever. Period!” another echoed. “Hope they were arrested and passports confiscated. They should also be barred from domestic flights and send to police remand for few days with same treatment being provided,” tweeted one user. “I believe, the one getting beaten has full rights to sue and put others behind bars,” claimed another.
