Qantas apologize for R-Rated film on Sydney Tokyo Flight

An incident on a Qantas flight recently caused great excitement when an R-rated film, which was classified as inappropriate, was played on all screens on the plane. The flight from Sydney to Haneda Airport in Tokyo was affected by a technical problem in the on -board attendant system, which means that passengers could not select films individually.

technical difficulties and selection of the film

In an official statement, the Australian airline confirmed the incident to CNN and said: "Our crew members had a limited list of films that they could play on all screens on the plane. Due to the inquiries of some passengers, a certain film was selected for the entire flight." This meant that the passengers were dependent on the not selectable film.

The controversial film "Daddio"

Although Qantas did not name the title of the film in his statement, several photos of passengers showed that were supposedly on the flight that the film was "Daddio". The drama from 2023 with Dakota Johnson and Sean Penn received the R-rating from the US film industry due to "language, sexual content and short-term, graphic nude".

unpleasant experiences for passengers

A user on Reddit who apparently took part in this flight reported the inconvenience of the film. "There was not only nudity, but also a lot of sexting scenes-you could read the texts on the screen without needing headphones," he wrote. He added: "It took almost an hour for them to switch to a more child -friendly film. It was very uncomfortable for everyone, especially for families with children on board."

reaction of Qantas

In her opinion, Qantas informed that the crew initially tried to repair the screens for passengers who did not want to see the film. When it became clear that this was not possible, they decided to switch to a children's film. The airline apologized to the passengers, especially those who had complained about the content, and announced that it would follow them after the incident.

apology and future measures

A spokesman for Qantas said: "The film was clearly not suitable for playing it over throughout the flight. We sincerely apologize for our passengers for this experience." In such rare cases in which an individual film selection is not possible, be it the standard of the airline to switch to a family -friendly film. Qantas will now check the selection of the film.

Correction: In an earlier version of the report, the star of the film was incorrectly identified. It is Dakota Johnson.
