Britney Spears apologized after lighting a cigarette during a charter flight. The pop star admitted to the incident on Instagram, calling it "incredibly funny" and explaining that she thought smoking was allowed due to the unusual design of the drink holder on the plane. Spears said she had her first drink of vodka and a friend handed her a cigarette, which she lit during the flight. Although smoking is prohibited on commercial flights, it may be allowed under certain conditions on private charter flights, which was not the case in this situation. Authorities met Spears upon landing and issued a warning after being alerted by a flight attendant. Spears initially believed the officials were greeting her kindly and only later realized the reason for their presence. She also criticized a flight attendant who allegedly tried to "embarrass" her by being overly strict before other passengers boarded. Spears concluded her post with an apology to anyone offended by the incident.
