A fight broke out between travellers on a considerably delayed flight. The travellers had to experience an eight-hour delay onboard before the departure of their plane from John F. Kennedy International Airport<\/a> in New York to Miami.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Some passengers took to Twitter to complain about the situation they stuck in. According to their tweets, there was no food provided and cabin crew could offer nothing.<\/p>\n

As Delta<\/a> says, during the delay some passengers started fighting so the crew had to call Port Authority Police<\/strong>. The passengers started screaming and flight attendants together with police tried to calm them down. The situation was definitely not under control.<\/p>\n

The passengers inform that in the beginning it was claimed to be a weather delay, then air traffic one, afterwards a refueling one. And the flight attendants seemed to know nothing about what was going on.<\/p>\n

According to Delta reports police did not remove any passengers from the flight. They managed to handle the situation onboard. And a Delta representative says Flight 2385<\/strong> experienced a delay due to weather conditions both in Miami and New York. And during the delay the passengers were provided with water and snacks. Moreover, they had a chance to get back to the terminal by bus if they expressed such a desire.<\/p>\n
