Another passenger recorded the interaction and the moment it worsened.
“Our flight attendants worked to calm the situation and protect other customers, and after landing in Orlando, authorities responded to the flight and the passenger was removed,” United said in a statement to TMZ.
“We are grateful to our team for their professionalism and ensuring the safety of our customers and their fellow United employees.”
The upset passenger apparently spat at people in a different audio recording, according to TMZ.
A witness said he saw her punching other passengers.
The restrained passenger also allegedly threatened to kill someone, according to TMZ.
And he shouted: “Go back to Russia” to someone else.
Photos show the passenger being escorted out of Orlando airport by police.
The whole ordeal delayed the original flight by 3.5 hours.
The US Sun has reached out to United for comment.
