Flight Emergency had tweeted why the flight had to turn back around.
“I’ve had to delete the tweet describing the reason for this flight returning to Brisbane due to the passenger who contacted me being bombarded so badly by the press he’s now had to delete his twitter, feel for him it’s pretty sad he should feel the need to do that” Flight Emergency, tweeted.
After circling and maintaining a height of 10,000 feet, the plane landed back in Brisbane in less than 2 hours.
