Jelana Dokic - Flight distruption

[abc12345678]

Was any one on the SYD-MEL QF flight today that had a "verbal altercation" between two parties?

It was the boyfriend and coach of Jelana Dokic (tennis player).

Reported on 7 News that first they had a verbal altercation with another female passenger who was eventually moved to the front of the plane... they then made inappropriate comments toward female crew members.

Something smells about this story - why would Jelena Dokic's coach be flying SYD-MEL when Jelena is playing this week in Hobart?

Thought she would be flying JQ considering they sponser her.

She was knocked out though.

The Guardian article.

It was the boyfriend and coach

So actually this thread should be titled Not Jelena Dokic - Flight distruption?

On the Channel 10 late news it was reported as on an HBA-MEL flight.The woman in front of boyfriend apparently complained of him continually bumping the back of her seat and there was then a verbal altercation.He does seem a tall lad so was this one of those recline/dont recline scenarios.

That would make more sense.

Well today tonight took a leaf out of Nonews with their report on this story tonight-showed a 744 as the plane doing HBA-MEL.:shock:Then the landing scene into MEL had a woode hill with many homes amongst the trees in the background.
They did not ask the woman if she had put her seat back-the boyfriend was kicking the seat back and according to the woman team Dokic were all swearing.

Aww, I was on a flight with Jelena Dokic once (she was a few rows ahead of me in J on the A380, SYD-LAX) and nothing interesting whatsoever happened.

Disappointing.
