A FLYSAFAIR flight turned rowdy midair after passengers in what appeared to be EFF regalia began chanting in the aisle.

The incident happened on a 189-seater FlySafair flight from Johannesburg to East London last week Thursday. The airline confirmed it was now looking into the matter.

FlySafair marketing chief Kirby Gordon said the incident was being handled in line with company procedures and civil aviation regulations.

“It is being addressed in accordance with our procedures and civil aviation regulations,’ Gordon said on Saturday.

The video, which has since circulated widely on social media, shows the inside of the aircraft while the plane is in flight.
