How all "Disruptive Passenger" diverts should end.
A South African woman caused an AC flight from LHR-YYZ to be diverted to YHZ after berating and technically assaulting members of the cabin crew. After pleading guilty, she will pay a fine and reimburse AC for the cost of the diversion. (www.cbc.ca) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Most of this tantrum over not being able to sit with her husband for the trip. She must have been ticketed a short time before flight time and was probably told of the seating arrangement prior to leaving for the airport and she elected to go anyway. This is a spoiled brat who thinks she is special enough to disrupt the seating on an airplane then take it out of the flight crew when no one wants to switch seats with her. She belongs to be on a slooow freighter back to South Africa in an isolated cabin.
i am a bit late to this discussion -
a fine plus expenses ( a lot more than the AC case) were awarded recently against a disruptive passenger by a judge in Perth Western Australia .. http://www.watoday.com.au/wa-news/virgin-flight-drama-costs-abusive-perth-man-58500-20150122-12w1mk.html

Does Aus have small claims court where the passengers could sue hem for lost time, revenue etc?
sorry, but I am not aware of a low cost option like that in Oz. Others may have better knowledge ??
Maybe some sort of civil suit through normal courts is theoretically possible, but the costs (time & money) would not be worth it. As I understand it, the ticket contract with the airline does not include getting you there according to the schedule either.
