"Disruptive Flyers Force Emergency Landing and Lifetime Bans on United Transatlantic Flight"

A United Airlines flight from London to Newark was diverted to Maine due to two possibly intoxicated and disruptive passengers, who were subsequently removed by law enforcement. The flight has since re-departed for Newark, and the individuals will be banned from future United flights while the matter is under review. The incident is being investigated by federal agencies, and one person has been detained and arrested. The Federal Aviation Administration has seen a decrease in reports of unruly passengers in 2023 compared to previous years.
