A horrified passenger has been left with a broken nose after being thrown around a flight cabin during turbulence.
The Aerolíneas Argentinas flight was hit by particularly bad turbulence over the Atlantic earlier in the week, causing chaos on board.
Screaming passengers were thrown around the cabin with one ending up with a broken nose and others left with bruising.
The flight took off at 8.21pm on October 18 from Madrid and was heading to Buenos Aires.
It was carrying 271 passengers and 13 crew members.
Around seven hours into the 12-hour journey, the plane began to shake.
Passengers woke up in a state of panic, with food and drinks trolleys being thrown around in the mayhem and hand luggage compartments slamming open.
Esperanza Borrás told the paper there was no warning before the incident.
She had briefly unbuckled her seatbelt when she felt the impact of the turbulence, hitting her head on the ceiling and breaking her nasal septum.
