Make New York Post a Preferred Source A drunken woman allegedly rubbed passengers the wrong way when she took off her pants and began masturbating on a flight from Baltimore to Miami last month.
Katy Inzer, 46, committed the lewd act shortly after takeoff on an American Airlines evening flight on September 11, according to an incident report filed by the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office.
A fellow passenger had complained to a flight attendant that Inzer had “remove(d) her pants and began to actively masturbate while making inappropriate sounds,” the report said.
Katy Inzer, a 46-year-old bartender from Maryland, was detained after allegedly removing her pants and masturbating on a Sept. 11 domestic flight. When approached by the attendant, Inzer stopped beating around the bush, put her pants back on and “fell asleep for the remainder of the flight,” according to the report.
When officers approached Inzer in Florida, they noted she had “a strong odor of alcohol [sic] beverage and bloodshot eyes,” and did not remember the alleged sexual misconduct because she “fell asleep,” the report said.
Neither Inzer nor sheriff’s officials immediately responded to a request for comment from The Post.

The Post had reached out to the feds for an update.
A week before Inzer’s alleged mile-high rub, a United Airlines passenger claimed she was forced to sit next to a masturbating man on an early morning flight from Rochester to Newark, only to be offered a $100 credit, according to NBC News.
The US Department of Transportation urges anyone who observes sexual misconduct on a plane to “report the incident promptly” to the flight crew or law enforcement at the destination.
Last year, the FBI said it had investigated 104 incidents of sexual assault and misconduct aboard commercial aircraft in 2024.
