The incident took place 50 minutes before the plane landed, according to the tipster. He said a first class passenger wanted to go to the toilet, but the captain was already in the toilet, so he told the passenger to go back to his seat and wait, but the passenger ignored him. So, when the captain came out of the toilet and saw the passenger standing in front, he reprimanded the male flight attendant for not working in place and affecting flight safety, and then the two sides exchanged blows, with the captain first breaking the male flight attendant’s hand and the male flight attendant knocking half of the captain’s incisors out.
In addition, the source also said that the original first class stewardess was not involved in the incident of the male stewardess, but another female stewardess, but because the female stewardess did not want to fly first class, the two then switched classes.
