Missing flight attendant found naked and dancing in plane bathroom

A British Airways flight attendant was caught with his pants down — literally — after he was reported missing mid-flight, then discovered naked and dancing in a business class bathroom.

The frolicking flight attendant appeared to have vanished by the time meals were served on a flight from San Francisco to London, the U.K. Sun reported.

His colleagues searched for him on the double-decker Airbus A380 — which had 470 passengers and crew on board — until one crew member discovered him in the Club World Cabin bathroom completely naked and dancing up a storm.

The man, who his co-workers say was on a drug-fuelled bender, was given a spare pair of pyjamas reserved for first-class passengers, then taken to the first-class cabin where he remained for the rest of the flight, according to the publication.

The 41-year-old man was arrested upon landing the morning of May 25, in response to calls from cabin crew about the welfare of a man on board, London’s Metropolitan Police told People in a statement.

He also received medical attention and was taken from the plane in a wheelchair.

His irate colleagues complained that they were forced to work the entire flight without breaks due to being a man down.

“It was a long time before he was located and he was completely out of it,” one co-worker told the publication.

“We think the guy popped pills when he was meant to be working,” they continued.

“The plane was cruising at 37,000 feet over the Atlantic, but this bloke seemed to be higher than anyone else.”

The steward was reportedly suspended from duties during the ongoing investigation, the Sun reported.

British Airways had no additional details, with a spokesperson saying, “This is a matter for the police.”
