Scoot flight from Gold Coast to Singapore diverted to Sydney after unruly man punches fellow passenger
A Scoot flight from Gold Coast to Singapore was diverted to Sydney Airport Monday due to a disruption caused by an unruly passenger on board.

Crew members and other passengers stepped in to break up the fight. "The unruly passenger was eventually subdued with 2 restraining kits, with the help of 5 passengers," the airline added.
