Unruly passenger duct-taped to seat after allegedly becoming Drunk on Trans-Atlantic Flight An airline passenger had to be duct taped to his seat after allegedly becoming drunk and unruly during a trans-Atlantic flight.

It happened on an Icelandair flight Thursday from Reykjavik to New York.

According to witnesses, the unidentified man spit on passengers and the flight crew and was screaming that "the plane was going to crash."

"A 46-year-old man was taken into custody last night at JFK off an Icelandic flight and then brought to the hospital because Port Authority police determined he was intoxicated," said Ron Marsico, a spokesman for the port authority.

"He was not charged ... he's free to go."

Icelandair confirmed the incident adding that plastic ties and tape are standard on all flights.

"This equipment is on board all our flights in case an incident like this arises," Raucheisen said.
