London: A British Airways (BA) stewardess has been suspended over allegations that her boyfriend got “hammered” and had a fight with the pilot at a Singapore hotel, it was reported.
###
The incident took place while Natalie Flindall was staying with the crew at a hotel before their connecting flight to London the next day, The Daily Mail said in a report on Sunday.
###
She had been flying from Sydney to Singapore and the “crew got plastered”, according to an airline insider.
###
They had allegedly “used drinks smuggled off the BA in-flight trolley”.
###
Flindall’s boyfriend had been invited and “meant to take a back seat” and “enjoy the ride”, they told the Sun newspaper.
###
But during the stop-over at Singapore, he got drunk and hit out at the pilot after an initial alcohol-fuelled scuffle.
###
Flindall is facing the consequences for bringing her partner on to the flight and there is speculation about why the pilot has escaped any.
###
The stewardess, who is from Reading, has served as BA Cabin Crew for three years.
