Passengers erupt in chaotic mid-flight brawl after one attempted to steal the other’s seat

Chaotic video footage captured a brawl that broke out on a long-haul flight from Taiwan to California when one passenger stole the other’s seat.

The fight broke out between two passengers mere hours into an 11½-hour journey Tuesday when one of them decided to switch seats because his neighbor was coughing — and took the other’s seat, according to What’sTheJam .

When the original occupant returned, he tried to hit the man who had poached the seat.

The man gets in one good hit as three flight attendants quickly try to step in and stop him, with one holding him from behind while another pushes him back, video shows.

Just when it appeared the fight had settled down, the man who poached the seat stands up and approaches the other passenger again, pushing the flight attendant to the side and taking a big swing at him.

Passengers can be heard screaming as the two men tussle, exchanging blows in the aisle before several passengers step in to help the crew separate them.
