ZIPAIR is a Japanese low-cost airline based out of Tokyo Narita International Airport (NRT). It flies to four destinations in the US including Honolulu’s Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL), Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), San Francisco International Airport (SFO), and San José Mineta International Airport (SJC). Video has surfaced showing a recent ZIPAIR flight with two passengers getting into a fistfight over a disagreement around using the air vent.

Apparently, the passenger in the window seat turned on the air vent. The passenger in the aisle seat wanted it off. They disagree and then begin punching each other. What’s interesting is that they were fighting over the air vent located above the vacant middle seat. Both wanted to control it and handled the disagreement in the worst way possible. No other details are provided around whether the passengers were moved, remained calm the rest of the flight, or were met by police upon arrival.

Anthony’s Take: This escalated way too quickly. The passengers were fortunate enough to have an empty middle seat, air vents can be tilted towards one passenger and not another, and this is not the way to behave. Ah, people. It never ceases to amaze me what happens at 35,000 feet.
