This incident reminds of a bunch of bad human behaviors all rolled into one.
The thrill of getting caught might be what it comes down to.
Same reason for the mile high club, packing firearms into your luggage and as pointed out, smoking pot in public.
I trust this person will get all the new thrills they seek in prison.
What's the civil liability on this person if all the passengers got together with the airline and sued for lost time, lost business opportunity, lost schedules in general including check in times at hotels?
Yep, someone said in this thread
they call it dope for a reason, could not be more right.
EDIT:
Using the Google search phrase "
aircraft delay passenger smoking marijuana" there is page after page of incidents on record. Unfortunately not an isolated incident.
