Video of a wild bust-up on an American Airlines flight shows two men battling it out in the aisle after one allegedly grabbed a woman’s neck while passengers disembarked.
The video, obtained by TMZ, caught the confrontation on American Airlines Flight 2249 as the plane arrived in Miami on Monday.
In the clip, a man appears to aggressively grab a woman in the aisle of the plane and push her back before another male passenger rushes forward to intervene.
A “safety alert” announcement can be heard in the background.

The situation spirals as the man who had allegedly held the woman moves down the aisle. He shoves the intervening passenger into a row of seats, shouting, “Don’t you grab me like that.”
Other passengers can be heard screaming in disbelief and anger as they look on.
“What the f— are you doin’?” one woman shouted, demanding someone arrest the man.
Another passenger pleaded, “We’re trying to pass. Somebody needs to get this man. Call the police.”
A flight attendant can also be heard trying to restore order, asking travelers to clear the aisle so passengers in the back can make their connecting flights.

Business Insider reported earlier this year that nearly 13,000 “unruly passenger incidents” have been reported to the Federal Aviation Administration by flight attendants since 2021. “Air travel can often bring out people’s worst tendencies thanks to how much of the experience is out of their control,” the report states.
The Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office confirmed to TMZ that deputies responded to a report of battery after the incident.
However, no arrests were made. It is unclear what the passengers were arguing about during the incident.
One of the men fled the scene, while the other declined to press charges.
Fox News Digital reached out to the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office and American Airlines for comment.
