EasyJet has suspended one of its captains after he was reportedly seen roaming a luxury hotel drunk and naked.
The unnamed pilot was witnessed walking through common areas of a five-star resort in Cape Verde without any clothes on in the early hours of the morning on 5 August, after an extended drinking session in a bar, according to the Sun.
He was due to operate a return flight to Gatwick more than 36 hours later but was grounded after the budget airline received complaints about the incident and a replacement pilot found.
An EasyJet spokesman told the BBC the pilot now faces an investigation and that the safety of passengers and crew was its “highest priority”.
