- The flight attendant had to fly to Britain after the fight
- She took her friend and daughter to the hotel in the Maldives
- But they got too loud and had to leave
A rowdy British Airways flight attendant was flown home after becoming involved in a fight at a Maldives hotel that can cost up to £2,000 a night.
The flight attendant, who has not been named, had to fly back to Britain from the Maldives after guests from Oblu Xperience Ailafushi, after flying with her colleagues from Heathrow to the capital Malé last week.
But she brought her daughter and a friend along, thanks to some discounted tickets.
After downing one drink after another, they continued to party on a balcony of one of their villas thanks to an all-inclusive package.
But after fellow holidaymakers complained about the ‘shouting and screaming’ coming from the villas, a fight broke out late that evening after hotel management warned the trio about their rudeness.

A source told the Sun: ‘There was a lot of pushing and shoving and then fists started flying.

Hotel staff contacted British Airways after the incident and threatened to remove the entire crew from the hotel.

BA flight attendants embarrassed the company earlier this year after two were fired for filming a racist video in which a colleague mocked Asian passengers by making sideways glances and putting on a Chinese accent.
Holly Walton and Lauren Bray have both been fired from the airline after the clip appeared on TikTok.
But a source close to Ms Bray, 28, from Crawley, West Sussex, says the clip in which Ms Walton appears to mock Asian passengers is more than two years old and was manipulated by a colleague with whom she has a long relationship. ongoing dispute.
They claimed Ms Bray reported the colleague to Sussex Police – and said they uploaded the video to TikTok and maliciously linked Ms Bray’s name to it.
Speaking exclusively to MailOnline, Ms Bray’s friend said she will appeal her dismissal – and accused BA of making a ‘hasty decision’ without conducting a proper investigation.
‘The video is fake. It is a fake TikTok account,” said the source close to her. “It’s all false and has nothing to do with Lauren.
‘The fragment and photos that were manipulated are from 2019 and 2022.’
