Airplane aisle with passengers seated.

THIS is the moment a bulky passenger wearing a “too busy doing nothing” top was dragged off the jet after demanding an aisle seat for his big frame.

The entitled passenger reportedly complained there was not enough room in his window seat on the Thai Lion Air flight taking off from Bangkok.

Footage shows airport officers hauling the stubborn passenger off his seat.

But instead of complying with the authorities, the man, seen wearing an orange t-shirt, lay down and blocked the aisle in protest.

The mid-air drama was said to have delayed the flight by around an hour before police arrived to drag him off the Boeing 737 aircraft.

Furious passengers screamed at him to “get out of the way” as airport police hauled his bulky body off the jet.

One female passenger was heard branding the man “selfish”.

Another passenger added: “At first, I thought we couldn’t take off because the man had fallen ill.

“It turned out he just thought the economy seat was too crowded and insisted on moving to the emergency exit.

“The flight attendants had to call the police because he refused to cooperate.”

Officers were seen carrying the man by his arms and legs in a bid to remove him from the aircraft.

The flight is said to have taken off around an hour later from the Don Mueang International Airport (DMK).

Meanwhile, footage captured the wild moment a furious woman had a mid-air meltdown when demanding a business class upgrade — before being tied up.

The incident took place on a flight traveling from Russia to Egypt, where a passenger in economy class argued she deserved an upgrade, claiming discomfort due to an alleged “pain in my butt and t**s.”

Shocking footage from the Aeroflot flight SU734 shows the woman standing in the aisle and yelling at cabin crew in broken English.

She said: “I want business class… I’m in pain in my butt, I’m in pain in my t*ts!”

She even grabs her own breasts while arguing her case, pleading: “But I need a business class because I was working.”

After failing to convince the cabin crew, the agitated passenger collapsed to the floor, shouting, “No, no, get out!” while another voice calmly responded, “You asked for it.”

According to the Telegram channel Aviatorshchina, crew members, with the assistance of strong male passengers, managed to restrain the woman following her threat to open the emergency exit and her desperate attempt to remove her top.

“The woman tried to push forward, ran around the cabin, approached the emergency exit, and threatened to ‘open’ it,” the report said.

“It even got to 18+ content. To get to the coveted seats, the passenger began taking off her T-shirt, hoping at least that would work.”

Although the video didn’t show her fully undressing, it captured her bizarre gestures and meltdown as stunned passengers watched on during the six-hour flight.

Meanwhile, a woman allegedly threatened to crash a plane in India during a row with cabin staff just days after the deadly Air India disaster.

Footage showed the passenger yelling at passengers and crew on board the flight.

The row is reported to have taken place on an Air India Express flight from Bengaluru to Surat.

A woman, identified as Dr Vyas Hiral Mohanbhai, 36, was taken off the flight and detained by police following the incident, the Indian Express reported.
