A British holidaymaker has been arrested in Mallorca after allegedly trying to kiss an air steward on the neck during a Ryanair flight from London Stansted. The incident occurred on June 29, prompting the pilot to radio air traffic controllers at Palma Airport to request police presence upon landing.
The 30-year-old man, who was reportedly heavily intoxicated, was initially identified by police but avoided immediate arrest as the cabin attendant declined to press charges. However, the steward later changed his mind and agreed to make a formal statement.
By that time, the tourist had already left the plane and passed through passport control. He was detained yesterday while attempting to board his return flight and was taken to court, where he was released on bail pending further investigation.
The man, seen being led into court in shorts and handcuffs escorted by two Civil Guard officers, has not been named. It remains unclear whether he is still in Mallorca or has been allowed to leave the island.
