The plane was traveling from London to Logan global Airport.
– A British Airways flight has landed safely at Boston Logan global Airport after a passenger reportedly tried to open an exit door during the flight, the Federal Aviation Administration told Fox affiliate WFXT.
The woman, approximately 30-years-old, was described as abusive and unruly by British Airways.
MA police had initially said on Twitter that the passenger had attempted to enter the aircraft’s cockpit but spokesman David Procopio later said in an e-mail that they have not confirmed whether that was true or what her motivation may have been.
The airline says it does not tolerate abusive behavior, but it didn’t elaborate. The passenger has since been restrained and the cockpit is secure. This is a developing situation.
