A drunk first class Virgin Atlantic passenger has admitted attacking cabin crew and shouting 'I hope this plane crashes and we all die,' during a flight from Barbados to Heathrow. Magistrates were told Street was 'not making sense' and told cabin crew 'what do you think' when asked if she had been drinking, before swearing when they refused to give her more alcohol. Virgin Atlantic cabin crew tried to move Street from first class to economy, but she turned violent, grabbing one flight attendant's hair and threatening to punch others.

The court was told Virgin staff said they had 'never experienced behaviour like this at 40,000 feet'.
