Passenger bites chunk out of flight attendant’s uniform on United plane

An unruly United Airlines passenger took a bite out of a flight attendant’s shirt before the Newark-bound plane was forced to make an emergency landing over the in-flight altercation.

The irate passenger — wearing an Al Pacino-inspired “Scarface” shirt — was held by several flight attendants and passengers when she threw several punches and spat on others during United Airlines Flight 762 from Miami to Newark on Tuesday.

During the scuffle, the woman thrashed her head around before chowing down on the male flight attendant’s shirt and yanking pieces of cloth off, cellphone video obtained by TMZ showed.

After the flight crew and passengers detained the woman, she was ushered down the aisle to another seat where she launched an explicative-filled rant.

“People are recording me, don’t come to this airline,” she says. “Don’t come on f–king United Airline, these people have an attitude problem, they don’t do their f–king jobs.”

The furious passenger turned her attention to someone off-camera and laid into them as she continued her unhinged rant.

“Old lady, who are you talking to old lady, go back to f–king Russia,” the passenger shouted. “Suck my d–k bitch. I’ll f–king kill you b—h.”

The flight, which took off from Miami International Airport at 5:38 p.m., had diverted course about an hour into the flight and landed at Orlando International Airport at 7:13 p.m. according to FlightAware.

After the plane landed, police escorted the passenger off as she continued to shout profanities at the top of her lungs while the remaining passengers gave law enforcement officers a round of applause.

The flight was further delayed when it was announced that the flight crew had to be changed because of the ordeal.

The plane didn’t get back in the air until 9:19 p.m. — three and a half hours later — and landed in Newark just after midnight Wednesday morning.

The reason for the midflight meltdown wasn’t revealed, but some passengers claimed it stemmed from a bathroom issue.

“She apparently verbally and then physically attacked a family in the back of the plane after not being able to go to the bathroom at one moment,” a passenger told the Daily Mail.

“The kids were screaming — not as loud as her though… I remember when I used to act like this aged 2 or 3 when I didn’t get ice cream,” the man added.
