A plane passenger headbutted a cabin crew member during a row in the business class area of a flight.
The man – said to be drunk – squared up to a male flight attendant.
He then pushed his head into the airline worker before colleagues intervened to restrain him.
The flyer was bundled to the floor and bound with cable ties.
It happened yesterday (25 Feb) morning on an Emirates flight from Dubai, UAE, to Islamabad, Pakistan.

The brave cabin crew were able to detain him for the rest of the three-hour flight.
The shocking moment was filmed by a fellow passenger on their mobile phone.
Footage from a different angle shows four cabin crew members dealing with him on the floor of the jet.
The passenger reportedly received warnings after “causing a disturbance.”
But despite multiple pleas from the onboard team, he continued to speak rudely to the flight attendants, frightening other passengers.
According to reports, he quickly became “extremely violent.”
When the flight landed, the man was filmed again as he was handed to the authorities slumped on a wheelchair.
A man can be heard telling him “Drink some water.”
Emirates has been approached for comment.
