The ONLY way I tolerate it is because of the drinks before and during the flight, to each his own!! There was NO mention of drinking in the OP or anything subsequently that I can see, apart from tee teetotalers that want to limit someone else's life because it doesn't "jell" with them!! I have NEVER been refused a flight or even chastised for drinking,I usually sleep when I've had enough!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aslimversgwm Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 2 hours ago, Father Fintan Stack said: It must also be noted that there was no 'panic' as the headline insinuates, and that the alleged offender was not in anyway distressed, angry or abusive towards the staff. He calmly left the plane when asked to as well. Hardly the work of someone deserving 5 years in a tin-pot third-World jail cell I'm sure you will agree. Or maybe not, if you are a bar-stool occupying, mouth-breathing, singlet wearing loon that has lost all sense of perspective from living in the jungle too long. I am always hesitant to side with the airlines in cases like this as they are the most notorious for having their jack-boot on the throat of the little guy. They way they conduct themselves as a cartel is shameful and in any free and fair World would be illegal. Unfortunately we will never know exactly what happened. Quite so and a great put down for a lot of the contributors on tv. Bless me father for I have sinned and intend to continue doing so for the forseable future.

CG1 Blue Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 The idiot is lucky he was taken into custody. I think he'd be in a hospital ward if the other passengers had been able to get to him.

CG1 Blue Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 2 hours ago, Father Fintan Stack said: If you read any of the other reports he didn't say "bomb" though. Allegedly he said if his hand-carry was not stored properly it was liable to explode. Could have been referring to anything in the luggage, some over-heating som tam perhaps. Again, not all the facts are at hand and as usual in Thailand, misunderstanding are always going to happen when English is not the first language and when dealing with poorly educated menial workers with mental health issues and inferiority complexes. To compound, Thai media and journalists are not able to do proper research or fact checking before publishing stories or articles, so to take such articles as verbatim is rather foolish. You may be right, and he may only be guilty of miscommunication. But having used Bangkok Airways for nearly 20 years, and countless other airlines, I know it would take quite a confrontation to cause this much trouble. Just board the plane, take your seat, and keep your mouth shut (aside from polite conversation). It's not difficult! Furthermore, if he did say his hand luggage is likely to explode if it's not stored properly, he deserves all he gets IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveAustin Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 I dunno, the indignation this guy is getting seems a bit disproportionate with, say, what a murderer might receive. He didn't hurt anyone, did he? Might have caused panic and inconvenience - and is a complete idiot, no doubt - but... Just sayin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the passengers, some would have been terrified, others will 'dine out' on the story for decades to come and their near death "terrorist attack" expeoerience and miraculous survival will be told to grandchildren.

In the same way that Thai Railways have now banned alcohol on trains for everyone because THEY employed someone who had a criminal record, got high on drink AND drugs, raped and killed a young girl and threw her off the train?
