FIVE British passengers heading to a Las Vegas bachelor party were dragged off a plane for brawling and lighting up a cigarette, according to reports.

Thomas Cook Airlines Flight 2924 from Manchester to Las Vegas had to be rerouted to Winnipeg over the weekend so the five wild passengers could be taken away in handcuffs.

“Five disruptive passengers were offloaded” for “mischief and causing disturbance,” an airline spokesman told the Winnipeg Sun.

Passengers booed the rowdy bunch as they were arrested by Royal Canadian Mounted Police, according to a video posted by the paper.

According to the New York Post, the men could be heard using abusive language such as “F*** off you f***ing scouse c**t”.

Eyewitnesses said the men were “abusive” and “fighting with each other” and they refused to follow the crew’s instructions.

“They had been fighting with each other and lighting a cigarette,” Krystyna Sczcygiel, who filmed a video of the men, told the Daily Mail.

“Every time they were told to sit down or fasten their seat belts, they just ignored them.”

“Then the other passengers were telling them to be quiet, so they started abusing them. They were warned so many times,” she added.

Police confirmed the men were arrested.

An airline spokesman couldn’t say whether the group had been drinking, just that alcohol had been served on the flight and in Manchester.

The flight finally arrived in Las Vegas later that day, two hours and 40 minutes behind schedule.

Thomas Cook doesn’t fly from Winnipeg, so the men will have to find another airline to take them home, a spokesman said.
