iStockTwo passengers were marched off a Glasgow flight by Italian police after the plane was forced to land.
EasyJet flight EZY3165 took off from the Scottish airport bound for the Egyptian city of Hurghada on Wednesday.
However, the pilot was forced to land the craft in Bari, Italy, due to passengers behaving in a disruptive manner.
Police officers met the plane on the tarmac and walked two passengers off the flight. The journey then proceeded to its final destination in Egypt.
A spokesperson from easyJet said: “Flight EZY3165 from Glasgow to Hurghada on March 26 diverted to Bari and was met by police due to two passengers behaving disruptively onboard.
“Once the passengers had left the aircraft, the flight continued to Hurghada.
“EasyJet’s cabin crew are trained to assess and evaluate all situations and to act quickly and appropriately to ensure that the safety of the flight and other customers are not compromised at any time.
“While such incidents are rare, we take them very seriously and do not tolerate disruptive behaviour onboard.
“The safety and wellbeing of our customers and crew is always easyJet’s priority.”
