    What's the story

    A recent incident involving a Jetstar flight from Bali, Indonesia to Melbourne, Australia has raised safety concerns.

    The aircraft was forced to return to Denpasar on March 31 when an unruly passenger allegedly attempted to open one of the plane's doors mid-flight.

    The airline confirmed the incident, adding local authorities in Bali had removed the "disruptive" passenger from the aircraft.

    The incident took place about an hour after the flight took off, according to flight tracking site Flightradar24.

    A video posted on social media showed a woman at the back of the plane trying to open a door.

    Her actions set an alarm ringing, which alerted the crew, who then took necessary action and turned back toward Bali.
