Two passengers of Thomas Cook Airlines from East Midlands Airport were forced to leave their flight after generating a security alert.

Corfu-bound passengers, Peter Kempton, 43, and his 50-year-old wife had a heated argument when their flight made an unscheduled landing in Italy due to bad weather.

The man allegedly walked out and left the aircraft while it was being refueled at Brindisi Airport.

Authorities arrested him after running down the attached steps. 

Mr. Kempton, from Lincoln, was charged for not following the air safety standards according to Brindisi Report .

"Thomas Cook has confirmed the passengers were removed from the flight because of disruptive behavior," the airline's spokesperson said.

"Passenger safety is paramount and the crew decided it was best for all for the couple to be removed from the flight and the matter is now in the hands of the Italian police," as reported by Daily Mail Online.

Since the safety of the passengers is important to the airline, on September 24, Daily Express also reported another incident with the same angle.  

Four men had boarded a flight from Manchester airport to celebrate holiday in Dalaman, Turkey. The festive trip was interrupted when Shabad Niaz, 23; Hammad Ahmed, 21; Nabeal Iqbal, 19 and Tasiq Ali, 18 were thrown off from their flight after allegedly being "extremely disruptive" and playing a song that used the term "bomb" numerous times.

Thomas Cook Airlines representative said "Four individuals were extremely disruptive throughout this flight and were refused carriage on the basis of their abusive behavior."

They denied the allegations after the Turkish policemen arrested them. "You could say we were a bit loud. We were having a laugh and joke with people around us," they stated.

They testify that they did not said "bomb" and will not say the term when they're on board. They also thought that they were treated unfairly because they are "bearded Asians."

But the airline was firm on their statement adding that "We do not tolerate such severely disruptive behavior towards our crew or passengers and their collective and sustained actions were entirely unacceptable."
