Airplane passenger fined in Sydney for urinating in a cup
A passenger has been fined for urinating in a cup during a delay in deplaning after landing at Sydney Airport.
A passenger has been fined for urinating in a cup during a delay in deplaning after landing at Sydney Airport.
The incident, after a 3-hour Air New Zealand flight from Auckland, occurred last December and a Sydney court fined the 53-year-old man 600 Australian dollars ($395) for offensive behavior in February, officials said Friday.
The incident only came to public attention on Friday, when New Zealand news website Stuff reported that a passenger in the same row, identified only as Hollv, said she had reported the behavior to the air crew.
She said she and her 15-year-old daughter were sitting in the aisle and middle seats when the man in the window seat, whose name has not been released, was urinating in a cup.
Holly said the plane had been on the tarmac for about 20 minutes, waiting for a terminal gate to be allocated, when she heard the unmistakable sound of the passenger urinating in a cup, Stuff reported.
You're viewing a single thread.
So he was unable to go to the bathroom, I guess? Because the plane was not at the gate yet?
Well in that case, as disgusting as this may be, you can't fine anyone for having bodily functions. I believe peeing in a cup is the right thing to do. Better than on the floor.

Why is this such a thing on Lemmy? Why do people comment on articles they haven't read?
From the article:
She said the man was “obviously quite drunk” and spilled urine on a flight attendant as he left the plane, it reported.
He was drunk and making drunk decisions.
In my experience, Lemmy is filled with people for whom anti-conformity for anti-conformity sake is their only personality trait.
They've got to be the first to comment and it's always got to be a militant stance against something.
I disagree /s
I’m totally into your militant anti-anti-conformity stance.
