Two men from the Black Lake area are facing charges following a disturbance on a commercial flight at the Saskatoon airport this morning.
Police were called to the Diefenbaker International Airport at about 8 a.m. to respond to a physical altercation on a plane bound for Ottawa.
According to police, a group of intoxicated men had boarded the plane when two of them became involved in a fight.
Four men were eventually removed from the aircraft, at the request of the flight crew.
A 21-year-old man and a 22-year-old man from the Black Lake area have been charged with causing a disturbance.
A third man was charged with breaching the conditions of an undertaking, while the fourth individual was released without charges.
The three men charged will be appearing in provincial court at a later date.
