A lovesick holidaymaker bound for Ibiza after breaking up with his girlfriend ended up assaulting airline staff who told him he was too drunk to board the plane.
Kyle Windsor had been drowning his sorrows during a marathon drinking binge in a departure lounge after arriving at Manchester Airport four hours early to 'hit the duty frees.'
But Jet2 staff were tipped off about the 27-year old's increasingly inebriated condition by other holidaymakers and they refused to let him get on the flight when he arrived at the boarding gate.
During the ensuing scuffle, Windsor pushed over passenger service assistant Roy Franklin and sent him crashing into a metal barrier before yelling: 'You f*****g fat slag' at colleague Sarah McLean as she tried to calm him down.
Kyle Windsor, 27, of Fazakerley, Liverpool, admitted common assault, using threatening behaviour, being drunk and disorderly and possession of cocaine
Families waiting to board looked on in horror as Windsor shouted 'who the f**k are you' at them before he was arrested by Greater Manchester Police and taken to Cheadle Hill custody suite.
He was found to have a wrap of cocaine in his pocket - which his solicitor told the court in mitigation that Windsor 'thought was ketamine.'
In a statement to police, Mr Franklin said: 'I felt disappointed that I found myself in this situation.
'I felt for the passengers and my colleagues but especially my female colleagues because of the language used.
'This incident was purely down to alcohol. I have been working at the airport with Jet2 for just over four months and this was a first for me.
'I come to work to help people, not to be assaulted.'
Miss McLean said: 'I should not have to come to work and be threatened for carrying out my duties.

'I have a duty of care to protect my colleagues, passengers and the aircraft.
'This incident was witnessed by many young children and this would no doubt have a had a negative effect on their holiday experience.'
