A person traveling from Kuala Lumpur to Sydney will face serious charges after allegedly attempting to open the plane's emergency door several times during the flight.
The 46-year-old Jordanian man is accused of trying to open the rear emergency exit door mid-flight on Saturday evening.
The dangerous alleged act sparked immediate concern from crew and passengers and the man was escorted back to a seat in the middle of the plane.
However, the 46-year-old allegedly made a second attempt to open the middle emergency exit door.
He was held back by staff members and travelers, with reports suggesting that one employee may have been attacked during the incident.
The Australian Federal Police took into custody the individual after the aircraft touched down safely in Sydney.
The specific airline involved in the incident remains unknown.
