(CNN) — It may be a new year, but there’s no new behavior when it comes to unruly passengers in the skies.
And it looks like the behavior has continued into February, with a US flight being diverted due to a disruptive passenger.
The Frontier Airlines plane was traveling from New York LaGuardia to Orlando, but was forced to divert to Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU) in North Carolina.
The airport announced the unexpected arrival in a statement, saying it was down to a “disruptive passenger.”
Frontier flight 1335 took off early, shortly before 6 p.m., and was scheduled to arrive at 9:11 p.m. at Orlando.
However, it was diverted to RDU at approximately 8:15 p.m., with RDU law enforcement, fire-rescue and Wake County EMS responding, the airport said.
At about 9:40 p.m., the flight was able to resume its journey to Orlando, according to RDU.
It finally arrived at its destination at 11.10 p.m..
CNN has reached out to Frontier Airlines for more information.
