Gotta love it!! How many rude and unruly passengers have I seen over the years who needed to be hogged tied like this!!!!

Is it a good or bad thing that the airline was prepared with ties and duct tape? ;)

"... that plastic ties and tape are standard on board flights to help in such situations."

Thats funny. I flew IcelandAir from Luxembourg>Iceland>JFK. It was a great flight, passengers were friendly with one other, and the crew was great. Flying into Iceland in the day though, was like flying into Mars with the terrain and scenery. And lots and lots of Vodka in the airport for sale.

It's a good thing.

On my last overseas flight, a 4 year old boy planted himself right by my seat (I was on the aisle.). He used my armrest for his little cars and trucks and then decided my arm made a good road, as well. His parents, grandmother, and older siblings just watched and said not a word. I think a little duct tape in my bag might be in order for my next flight.

Sometimes I would like a few Dexter syringes... Like for the guy who was freaking out because the flight attendant brought him the wrong brand of whiskey.
