A man was arrested after allegedly assaulting a member of the flight's cabin crew.
The flight, which was heading to the popular holiday destination in Turkey on Friday, May 24, had to be diverted during the incident. After departing at around 5.15pm, the TOM778 flight made an unscheduled landing at Newcastle International Airport due to the mid-air drama.
He was arrested on suspicion of being drunk while on board an aircraft and has since been released under investigation. Officers enquiries are ongoing.
