A Scots EasyJet passenger has been caged after a Glasgow flight had to divert due to his drunk behaviour.Brian Watt caused the flight to Tenerife to be diverted to Bristol Airport after he became intoxicated, disruptive and abusive on the plane.The 34-year-old from Rothesay was caught smoking in the plane toilets, damaged a soap dispenser and relieved himself in front of other passengers on the flight, reports Bristol Live.He also refused to remain seated and grew increasingly abusive and insulting towards members of the cabin crew.He admitted to being drunk on an aircraft, criminal damage, failing to obey the lawful commands of the pilot, and using threatening, abusive or insulting words towards crew.He was sentenced at North Somerset Magistrates' Court on Thursday, July 18 to eight months in jail.Sergeant Rachael Hodges said: "Brian Watt's threatening and criminal behaviour was disgraceful, and forced the flight to Tenerife to be diverted.

He caused significant disruption to passengers onboard, as well as the airline and crew."He now has a criminal record and a significant prison sentence as a result, and it hopefully is a reminder to people flying away this summer of the need to behave when travelling."Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today.You'll receive daily updates on breaking news as well as the top headlines across Scotland.No one will be able to see who is signed up and no one can send messages except the Daily Record team.All you have to do is click here if you're on mobile, select 'Join Community' and you're in!If you're on a desktop, simply scan the QR code above with your phone and click 'Join Community'.We also treat our community members to special
