Arrest Made Over Suspected Drug Use Mid-Flight
A 41-year-old British Airways flight attendant was arrested after being found dancing naked in a business class lavatory during a flight from San Francisco to London Heathrow Airport on May 25, 2025.

He was arrested on suspicion of being unfit for duty, with reports suggesting he may have consumed drugs while on duty.

The incident occurred aboard a double-decker Airbus A380-800 carrying approximately 470 passengers and crew.

Found Dancing Naked in Business Class Toilet
The crew manager later discovered the steward naked and dancing inside one of the business class lavatories.

Colleagues believed he might have consumed pills during his shift. One staff member told The Sun that the flight attendant appeared “higher than anyone else” while the plane cruised at 37,000 feet.
Dressed and Seated for the Rest of the Flight
To manage the situation, crew members dressed the flight attendant in a spare set of First Class pyjamas and escorted him to the First Class cabin, where he was secured in a seat for the remainder of the ten-and-a-half-hour journey.
Other crew members had to work the entire flight without breaks to cover for his absence.
Medical Attention and Arrest Upon Landing
According to the Daily Mail, upon landing at London Heathrow Airport at 11 am, the flight attendant received medical attention and was escorted off the plane in a wheelchair.
Police then arrested him on suspicion of being unfit for duty related to suspected drug use.

The Metropolitan Police confirmed they were alerted by cabin crew just after 9:30 am and that the steward was taken to the hospital before being arrested, The Independent reported.
He was later released while authorities continue their ongoing investigation.
Official Statements
British Airways confirmed that the case is now in police hands and that the flight attendant has been suspended while the investigation proceeds.
