Airline Traveler Throws Epic Tantrum Over Carry-On Bag Fees

A female traveler from China was filmed earlier this month having a child-like meltdown at an Italian airport after airline officials confirmed her carry-on bag was too heavy.

According to News.co.au, the middle-aged Chinese woman was traveling through the Milano Malpensa Airport in Italy on June 8 when she reached the boarding gate and the incident occurred.

Staff working the gate informed the female traveler that her carry-on luggage was too heavy and that she would either have to pay an extra fee or discard some of the bag’s contents before being permitted to board her flight.

Instead of complying, the woman began throwing an epic tantrum, with other travelers at the airport snapping video of her laying on the floor, stomping her feet, and screaming. 

Security officers attempted to intervene but the woman continued her tirade until she finally calmed down. She was not permitted to board her originally scheduled flight, but was allowed to book another ticket later in the day.
