British Airways barred Naomi Campbell from traveling following her violent outburst on a plane in 2008.

As per Daily Mail, the troubled supermodel was taken into custody at Heathrow's Terminal 5 after arguing with BA employees about a misplaced suitcase.

In 2013, Amanda Bynes was denied entry onto a private aircraft due to her incorrect identification. Since the actress lacked any other form of identification and her driver's license had been suspended, Amanda instructed the pilot to look up her name on Google to establish her identity. Witnesses to the scene at Teterboro Airport stated that the incident occurred during a trip from New Jersey to Los Angeles. TMZ claimed that the pilot was required to verify the identity of each passenger, and Amanda did not have any official government identification on her.

Jonathan Rhys Meyers was reportedly aggressive when he attempted to board a first-class United Airlines flight in 2010, which resulted in his denial of entry and subsequent airline ban. Then, in 2017, he was pulled out by security at the Dublin airport after it was noticed that he was intoxicated. He got into difficulty once more in July 2018 when he was arrested for drinking, attempting to vape on an American Airlines flight, and berating his wife Mara Lane. The actor decided to get help for his problems as a result of this occurrence.

In 2015, supermodel Kate Moss was apparently disruptive on a flight from Turkey to London's Luton airport, and she was taken off the aircraft. The actress was led off an easyJet flight from the Turkish vacation town of Bodrum. According to Mail Online, Moss called the pilot a "basic b***h" and drank vodka that she had hidden in her luggage before getting herself kicked off the aircraft. A fellow passenger said: "She called the pilot a ‘basic b***h’ as police led her off the plane, she was a little drunk and had a disagreement with another passenger on the flight as she was refused alcohol and then went to serve her own vodka from her cabin luggage … But she was not aggressive to anyone and was funny really, the easyJet crew was acting out of proportion."

Actress Tara Reid was escorted from the aircraft after a "disturbance" on board a Delta flight in 2018. According to a video obtained by TMZ, Reid was spotted holding her puppy on one arm, sporting a red beanie, and a black coat. A flight attendant asked her to place her dog in the overhead bin and carry-on, which she felt was ridiculous because animals cannot breathe in those spaces. According to some accounts, Reid was asked by a flight attendant to place the empty box in the overhead bin while the puppy remained on her lap. Reid persisted in being rowdy and disruptive, and in the end, Delta decided she was not fit to travel.
