Due to technical problems, passengers could not choose what they wanted to watch on their screens themselves. Instead, the cabin crew chose a film that was shown to everyone: the drama "Daddio", which contains explicit references to oral sex and masturbation.

The film also features, among other things, an erect penis and naked female breasts. Now, the airline Qantas is apologizing.

The film was clearly not suitable to be shown to the entire plane and we sincerely apologize to our customers for this experience, says a spokesperson for the Australian company.

The mistake was corrected a bit into the film. Passengers were then shown a "family-friendly" film for the rest of the trip.
