A pilot for easyJet has been suspended for reportedly walking drunk and naked around a luxury hotel.
The captain was expected to fly passengers from Cape Verde, West Africa, to the UK but has since been grounded by the airline.
The man arrived at the five-star Melia Dunas Beach Resort and Spa in Cape Verde on August 4th and began to binge drink until the early hours of the morning, the Sun reported.
According to the newspaper, at around 2.30am he removed his clothes and walked into the reception before heading to the gym and spa.
He was scheduled to fly a plane back to London Gatwick 36 hours later, on the afternoon of August 6, but a replacement pilot was found.
A spokesperson for easyJet said, "As soon as we were made aware, the pilot was immediately stood down from duty, in line with our procedures, pending an investigation.
The airline said, "The safety of our passengers and crew is easyJet's highest priority."
The flight from Gatwick to Cape Verde is easyJet’s longest from England at 2,332 nautical miles and scheduled to take about six hours.
