An AirAsia flight from Chongqing to Kuala Lumpur was delayed after a passenger was removed following an onboard dispute. The situation reportedly began when the passenger refused to comply with a flight attendant’s instruction not to use a mobile phone before takeoff, citing a language barrier and insisting on communication in Mandarin. The disagreement escalated and caused disruption in the cabin. Airport staff and security officers later intervened and escorted the passenger off the aircraft.
