The flight of the Israeli airline El Al from New York to Tel Aviv has become a nightmare for some orthodox Jews passangers.

11 hours after dozens of ultra-Orthodox Jewish passengers refuse to sit next to women, reports 'The Telegraph'.

Jaredís first refused to sit in their seats, standing in the aisles and delaying the takeoff. Once the plane took off and the seatbelt sign was turned off, the Jews returned to stand up.
