Sexually Explicit Movie 'Daddio' Played to Passengers on Qantas Airline's Sydney-Haneda QF59 Flight, Airline Issues Apology for Showing Adult Film on Plane
Passengers on Qantas flight QF59 from Sydney to Haneda were shocked when the sexually explicit film "Daddio" played onboard. The airline has since issued an apology for the incident.
Mumbai, September 7: In a surprising incident on a Qantas flight from Sydney to Haneda, the explicit movie 'Daddio' was played on all in-flight entertainment screens due to a technical glitch. The situation got disturbing when the raunchy film "Daddio" (2023) was broadcast on flight QF59 without an option to turn it off.
'Daddio' is an R-rated film starring Dakota Johnson and Sean Penn that includes explicit sexual content and graphic nudity, featuring scenes with visible genitals. Qantas acknowledged the incident, attributing it to a technical malfunction in the in-flight entertainment system that disabled individual film selections. In an effort to address the situation, crew members sought input from passengers on movie preferences, which ultimately resulted in "Daddio" being played for the entire cabin.
