James Gray was a passenger on a KLM flight from Edinburgh to Amsterdam, when he tried to open a jet exit, 30,000 feet. He reportedly claims he merely touched the handle while temporarily confused but the crew dealt with the situation firmly, ordering him to his seat and informing him he would be arrested upon landing at Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport.
 “I tried to explain it was a simple mistake," the passenger told the Sunday Post. "It was a misunderstanding. The police came and arrested me. They weren’t too friendly.”
Gray spent the night in a detention center and was released. Now banned from the airline for five years, he borrowed money to take a rival carrier back home to Scotland, the Sunday Post reported.
A KLM spokeswoman confirmed there was "misbehavior" on the plane. "We'll only share that a passenger was delivered because of misbehaviour to the authorities, and we can’t give you further information," she told The Huffington Post. They're preparing a law that prohibits passengers who drank too much to enter the plane."
According to Ask the Pilot, one cannot open a jet door in flight under normal operating conditions because of cabin pressure.
Gray was arrested and fined 600 Euros (about $672).
