WATCH: Shocking footage shows AirAsia passengers vomiting as they’re blasted with mist
ALARMING footage has captured the moment airline passengers in India started vomiting as they were blasted with clouds of mist from the air conditioning in an attempt to force them out.
Alarming footage has captured an aircraft cabin on board an AirAsia flight to India filling with mist as the captain blasted the air conditioning on full power in a bid to make the passengers leave the plane.
The flight, departing from Kolkata was delayed by over four hours for its journey to Bagdogra, West Bengal.
When passengers began growing frustrated, the aircraft’s captain told them to disembark the plane without any explanation.
However, when they refused due to heavy rain outside, he forced them out by turning the air conditioning on high, it is claimed.
A clip from inside in the plane shows the passengers shouting loudly and complaining as the mist swirls around the cabin nearly obscuring the people.

The frightened passengers can be heard coughing loudly, with some vomiting.
Passenger Dipankar Ray - who filmed the shocking footage - told Press Trust of India (PTI) that the airline staff had been very “unprofessional and rude.”
"The flight was scheduled to depart at 9 am and was initially delayed by 30 minutes,” he said.
“After boarding, we kept sitting inside the aircraft for one-and-a-half hours with no food or water at all.”
"When passengers refused to deboard due to heavy rains outside, the captain put the air-conditioning blower on full blast to hound the passengers out.

“It created a scary scene as heavy fog was created inside the plane and it was very suffocating (sic).”
Ray said that the plane had returned to the gate as a result of a “technical snag” before the captain ordered the passengers out.
On Facebook, Ray commented on the clip: "This is the way Aviation industry works in India. This #AirAsiaservice was particularly scary ... Avoid Air Asia (sic).”
AirAsia India acknowledged the delay in a statement and explained that the air conditioning had been turned on as a result of “high humidity conditions.”
The airline said: "AirAsia India would like to confirm that flight i5583 from Kolkata to Bagdogra was delayed by 4.5 hours due to a technical requirement.
