A first-class plane passenger was arrested over claims he branded a flight attendant a ‘f*g’ for refusing to serve him more booze.
Christopher Alexander Morgan is also said to have called the unidentified Delta worker ‘queer’ and whacked him with a cabin phone on the flight from Atlanta to Phoenix on April 22.
The drama is said to have begun after Morgan reclined his chair before take-off, then refused to raise it again at the request of the cabin crew.
He is said to have grown even more irate on being refused a second alcoholic drink after take-off and then hurled homophobic slurs before allegedly grabbing a cabin phone to use as a weapon.
The incident left the plane’s crew so fearful of Morgan’s erratic behavior that they guarded the cockpit for the duration of the flight.
And after he was arrested by the FBI on landing at Sky Harbor Airport, Morgan is said to have readily confessed to being a homophobe, the Daily Beast reported.
