Two passengers caused a fight to break out on a KLM flight to Ibiza last Friday when they refused to wear face masks.
Video footage shows a man with his mask below his chin screaming at a mask-less (and shirtless) passenger. Two other passengers without masks can also be seen physically fighting before other flight passengers separate them.
Passengers can be heard yelling and screaming “there are kids here!” The video then cuts to footage of one of the men on the aisle floor in restraints.
The men were arrested by Spanish police upon arrival in Ibiza.
The video posted to the Instagram account @michighclub claimed one of the passengers was drunk off vodka.

Though KLM airline requires face masks during boarding and the duration of the flight, several people in the video can be seen without masks. Another number of people are wearing face masks below their chin, making the masks completely useless.
“Two unruly passengers refused to wear their face masks, and they were bothering their fellow passengers physically and verbally,” a KLM spokesperson said. “The pilot informed the local authorities and upon arrival, both passengers were arrested. The flight safety was not compromised during the flight.”
