This is the hilarious moment an irate air hostess who had just been fired smashed up more than £1500 worth of duty free alcohol.

The woman – who has not been named – saw red and was caught on CCTV footage as she went on a messy rampage when smashing bottles of wine, gin, and Aperol in front of astonished passengers.

Sources said she had just been given her notice by an undisclosed airline and went on the rampage on Wednesday afternoon in Rome’s Fiumicino airport.

In the footage which was leaked to Italian media the woman – still dressed in her uniform – is seen approaching a display stand before knocking over several bottles to the ground.

She then moves out of shot before calmly returning and pushing off several other bottles creating a huge mess on the floor.

At one point she is seen slipping over on the spilled liquid before getting up and carrying on smashing bottle after bottle.

Travellers are seen looking on astonished at what they were witnessing.

A further clip shows the area taped off as a crowd looks on.

The footage was posted on website Welcome to Favelas and then picked up news outlets – the caption alongside the video read:’ It’s often said that air crew can be stressed from long hours and breakdowns are not rare….’

A source at Rome airport said:’ The woman had just arrived and had been told that her contract was not being renewed and she just flipped and took out her anger at the duty free display.

Police were called to Rome’s Fiumicino airport where she was eventually taken away to hospital for a medical examination

‘She was causing a real scene and bottle after bottle went flying and within a few seconds there was glass and alcohol all over the floor and it was quite a slip risk for travellers.

‘Police were called and she was eventually taken away but not before smashing dozens of bottles and making her own cocktail on the floor.’

A Rome police spokesperson said:’ Officers based at Fiumicino were called to an incident in the Duty Free area of the airport on Wednesday afternoon.

‘A woman in airline uniform was identified at the scene after smashing several bottles and she was taken to hospital for a medical examination and thren later released.

‘At this stage no charges have been made and enquiries are continuing.’
