She had apparently traveled with her husband and two kids for holiday before the start of the school term. Ukraine International Airlines said the passenger is now "blacklisted". In a statement, it said: "A passenger of flight PS6212 Antalya-Kyiv illegally opened the emergency exit of the plane after it stopped near gate 11 of terminal D and went on to its wing. "The passenger was flying on a charter vacation with her husband and children. "The chief pilot immediately summoned the aviation security, border service, police and medical centre of Boryspil Airport. "The passenger was blacklisted for gross violation of aviation safety rules and behavior onboard."
