Cabin crew requested ‘not to tie up passengers with duct tape’

In recent months, several airline passengers have been tied to seats with duct tape because, according to the cabin crew, they would have been ‘unmanageable’.

Aggressive Passengers

For example, a 22-year-old man was caught between the American cities of Philadelphia and Miami at the beginning of this month glued to his chair because he allegedly touched the breasts of some flight attendants. He reacted aggressively and hit a crew member.


In the letter to staff, the airline writes that staff must avoid being tied up at all costs. The British newspaper reports that The Guardian. “There are special items on board the plane that can be used in difficult situations.”

KLM staff is being trained on flight safety, an employee said rather to Edition NL. Duct tape is therefore not a good idea. “Suppose you have to make an emergency landing, you can’t get someone out quickly.”

First, unruly passengers receive a warning. “Then if someone crosses the border again, that could mean making a stopover or disembarking someone while we’re still on land.”
