Passenger kicks airplane after missing flight

He definitely made it into the mile cry club.

An American tourist has been deported from Colombia after kicking and punching an airplane because he missed his flight. The wild video was initially shared to the X account @RedMasNoticias, but was reposted to Instagram, where it’s currently going viral.

“This man had an aggressive demeanor that put both the staff and other travelers at risk,” said Daniel Gallo of the Colombian Air Transport Workers’ Union, Jam Press reported.

The ruckus kicked off after the unnamed US citizen had reportedly showed up late to a LATAM airline flight that was slated to fly from Bogotá to Cartagena on August 23, local media reported.

“This disruptive passenger first attacked the ground staff after being told that the flight had already closed and he had arrived late,” said Daniel Gallo of the Colombian Air Transport Workers’ Union. “He then forcefully proceeded to the boarding gate, and when he couldn’t get on the plane, he chose to breach flight security.”

The traveler had reportedly arrived at the gate after closing, whereupon crew members denied him entry. However, instead of complying, the bozo bypassed the cordon and attempted to board the plane.

“When he couldn’t get on the plane, he chose to breach flight security,” Gallo recalled.

Upon finding that the aircraft door was closed, the irate flyer threw a tantrum for the ages.

In the accompanying three-minute Instagram video, filmed by a passenger aboard the plane, the manchild is seen kicking the plane door in desperation.

The US citizen was reportedly deported from Colombia within hours.

At one point, the desperate fellow drops to his knees and bangs on the window as he begs staffers to let him in.

He even tries fiddling with the joystick on the boarding bridge in a last-ditch attempt to get on the aircraft.

Salvation came after police and security personnel apprehended the hellion and took him to the airport migration office, where he reportedly assaulted an official.

The man was deported from the country within hours.

Instagram viewers were shocked and appalled by the traveler’s meltdown.

“Even if it’s possible to open the door for him to board, does he think that cabin crew or captain will allow such a crazy person to be onboard,” said one commenter.

Another wrote, “Easiest way to get on the no-fly list.”

A former airline employee also weighed in on the man’s antics.

“Coming from a former airline agent, it is the agent’s responsibility at the check encounter to not let anyone through if the flight is already boarding,” they wrote. “There’s a cut-off time for you to check in counter once they let that passenger through especially at the gates now they all have to be accounted for smh.”
