A BRITISH Airways stewardess was flown home in disgrace after being involved in a boozy fight at a £2,000-a-night hotel in the Maldives.
The airline worker was ordered back by bosses after resort staff and guests were left appalled by the loutish behaviour of her group.

She had been staying at the Oblu Xperience Ailafushi with the rest of the BA flight team, who had flown from Heathrow to capital Malé last week.
She had also used her staff travel perk to fly her daughter and a pal out with her on discounted tickets.
And they tucked into unlimited drinks, as part of an all-inclusive package at the resort — before continuing to booze on a balcony by one of their villas.
But fellow holidaymakers complained about “screaming and screeching” long into the night, with some saying it ruined their stay.
The fight then broke out late in the evening after hotel management warned the trio about their behaviour.
A source said: “There was a lot of pushing and shoving, then fists were flying.
“Onlookers got involved as they tried to break it up. It was the last straw for the hotel. BA was informed and the stewardess was ordered home.”
The hotel contacted BA threatening to dump the entire crew over the incident.
The stewardess returned to Heathrow last Wednesday — with her daughter and friend flying back the next day.
BA rules make clear that employees are responsible for the behaviour of anyone travelling under their name. The airline confirmed it is “investigating the matter”.
It is the latest embarrassment for BA in the Maldives.
Last year, a crew member ran naked around a buffet at a hotel, while in 2022 staff were banned from drinks deals at another location after a stewardess passed out drunk on a beach.
