Man who forced return of plane tries to board again

The man, surnamed Chuang, wanted to board an Air Macau flight to the former Portuguese colony, but was refused boarding permission in light of the incident the previous evening, in which he boarded a Macau-bound flight with several friends and began smoking in the business-class cabin. He put out his cigarette after warnings by the stewardess.

But he later lit up again, causing a quarrel to ensue and forcing the captain of the plane to return to Taiwan 20 minutes into the flight.

It was the first case of its kind on a flight out of Taiwan.

This horribly shameless man gives all Taiwanese a bad name.

Not all smokers are like this, but so many smokers seem to think they have the right to smoke anywhere and anytime they want with no thought at all for those around them. This isn't a Taiwanese problem. This is a problem with smokers.
