A millionairess was arrested for 'manhandling' an airline flight attendant as she drunk champagne in her £5,000 seat.
Diane Breen was only left off with a warning by magistrates because the plane was over international waters when she lunged at the woman at the first-class bar on board the Virgin Atlantic flight to Barbados.
The 52-year-old, who is a former stewardess herself, had been asked to keep the noise down following complaints from other passengers, vc77.photos and was arrested at the Caribbean Island's Grantley Adams International airport, according to the Sun.
