A terrifying incident unfolded on Copa Airlines Flight CM204, travelling from Brazil to Panama, when a passenger attempted to open the plane’s emergency door just before landing. Around 30 minutes before arrival, the man, armed with a plastic knife from his meal tray, charged toward the rear of the aircraft, demanding access to the emergency exit. He then tried to take a flight attendant hostage. According to witness Cristiano Carvalho, a photojournalist on board, a flight attendant screamed for help, but the man overpowered attempts to restrain him. After ignoring warnings, he tried to reach the emergency door. Passengers quickly intervened, tackling the man to the ground. Upon landing in Panama, military officers boarded the plane, arresting the passenger, whose face was reportedly bloodied from the struggle. Copa Airlines confirmed the arrest and praised the crew and passengers for their quick action to ensure safety. ‘It Was Such a Dehumanizing Experience’: 2 Women Allegedly Kicked Off Spirit Airlines Flight in US for Wearing Crop Tops, Video Goes Viral.
