Greek police arrested a 39-year-old Israeli man immediately after his flight from Budapest to Thessaloniki landed at Macedonia Airport. The arrest followed complaints from the flight crew regarding the man's behavior during the journey. According to Greek police, the passenger repeatedly violated safety regulations and refused to follow flight attendants' instructions, posing a threat to flight safety and disrupting the crew's work. The man allegedly left his seat multiple times, opened overhead luggage compartments, and continued to disregard rules despite warnings. He also ignored a pre-landing seatbelt requirement and used an e-cigarette, which is prohibited on board. Upon landing, law enforcement officers, alerted by the crew, took the man into custody. He is suspected of endangering an aircraft, disturbing public order, and disobeying the captain's commands. No injuries to passengers or crew were reported. Greek authorities are continuing their investigation into the incident, with no further details on potential proceedings against the man yet released.
