An altercation erupted mid-flight on an EVA Air flight from Taiwan to California, resulting in a violent fight between two passengers. The incident unfolded when one passenger attempted to switch seats due to his neighbor’s coughing, sparking a confrontation over the seat.
The scuffle, captured in a shocking video shared online, shows flight attendants intervening as the passengers exchange blows in the aisle. The situation escalated when one of the passengers, having taken another’s seat, was confronted upon his return.
The cabin crew worked to separate the fighting passengers, with one flight attendant reportedly getting elbowed in the head during the scuffle. Despite efforts to calm the situation, punches were thrown, and the altercation continued until fellow passengers intervened.
