An entire plane full of passengers was evacuated after two men started fighting over an armrest.

The bizarre incident took place at the San Francisco Airport where two United Airlines passengers got into an argument over the armrest between their seats.

“On my first flight in 15 months, of course we were rerouted back to the gate because two passengers got into a physical altercation over elbow placement upon arm rests,” one unhappy traveler who witnessed the altercation shared on Twitter after the incident.

Following their brawl, the two men were escorted off the aircraft and detained by the authorities, SFGate reported.

Meanwhile, all other passengers were forced to return to the gate and wait for some time before they were allowed back on the plane.

After the incident, neither of the two men involved in the argument pressed charges. Reportedly, they also didn’t suffer any injuries.

While their hot heads eventually cooled down, the two unruly passengers weren’t allowed to go back on the plane and rejoin the flight.

“United flight 634 from San Francisco to Las Vegas returned to the gate due to a disruptive incident involving two customers prior to take off,” a United Airlines spokesperson said in a statement to LADbible.

“Law enforcement officials met the aircraft and soon after, the flight departed for Las Vegas, without the passengers involved in the incident.”

The incident follows less than one week after another flight got disrupted by a male passenger who allegedly tried to open the door while high up in the sky.

The Delta Airlines flight in question later got diverted from Atlanta to Oklahoma City on June 11.

“Thanks to the crew and passengers of Delta Flight 1730 (LAX to ATL) who assisted in detaining an unruly passenger as the flight diverted to Oklahoma City (OKC),” the airline stated after the incident.

“The aircraft landed without incident and the passenger was removed by law enforcement. We apologize to our customers for the delay and any additional inconvenience this caused.”
