Flight 800 was travelling from Sacramento to Seattle on Monday when a drunk passenger started disrupting the flight despite crew members' best efforts to calm him, said King 5 News.

The passenger eventually locked himself in a bathroom, and the flight was grounded in Portland so he could be handed over to police, KOIN 6 reported.
