THE airline at the centre of an air rage incident which forced a transatlantic jet to divert to Shannon airport is to sue a librarian who caused the disturbance.

THREE male passengers had to restrain a librarian on and off over one and a half hours during the course of an air rage incident on board a transatlantic flight at the weekend, a court heard yesterday.

A 32-year-old librarian has appeared in court in Clare charged in connection with an air rage incident this morning which forced a plane to divert to Shannon Airport.
