During a long British Airways flight from London to Los Angeles, Conrad Hilton — Paris Hilton’s younger brother and great-grandson (and namesake) of the Hilton hotel chain founder — allegedly paced the aisles, dropped 25 F-bombs, threatened to fight a co-pilot, threatened to kill a flight attendant, and ranted and raved so loudly he made children cry.

And he allegedly delayed drink service for 40 minutes.

The 20-year-old appeared in federal court in Los Angeles to answer a charge of assaulting the crew of a flight to the point where it interfered with their ability to perform their duties. A 17-page FBI affidavit detailing his alleged behavior on the July 31 flight paints him as an out-of-control nightmare. Here are some of the more interesting allegations in the document:

  • As the plane ascended, Hilton reportedly refused to remain seated with his seatbelt on, claiming that if the flight crew was able to walk around, he should too.

  • Ordered again to sit down, Hilton allegedly unleashed a string of profanity, telling one flight crew member to “[EXPLETIVE] off.”

  • He allegedly complained that another male passenger was giving him the “stink eye.”

  • Hilton reportedly told the co-pilot: “If you wanna square up to me bro, then bring it on and I will [EXPLETIVE] fight you.”

  • Passengers believe he fired up a joint in one of the bathrooms.

  • He reportedly called the passengers “peasants” and said to the flight crew: “I could get you all fired in five minutes. I know your boss. My father will pay this out, he has done it before. Dad paid $300,000 last time.”

  • At one point, Hilton reportedly punched the bulkhead near a flight attendant’s face.

  • Hilton’s tirades and pacing reportedly upset passengers, scared children, blocked flight attendants, and delayed drink service.

90 minutes before the plane landed, the flight crew reportedly handcuffed Hilton to his seat after he finally fell asleep.

Hilton is now free on a $100,000 unsecured bond. He faces 20 years in prison if he’s convicted.
