Flight attendants tried to stop the man, who is from Nepal, from entering the toilet when he told them he needed to go to the loo, but he managed to get in and lock the door, The Standard reported.
Flight CX411 was on its final approach and passengers and crew were supposed to be in their seats with their safety buckles fastened.
Flight attendants tried to convince the man to exit but he refused, and for safety reasons they returned to their seats and waited until the plane landed to open the locked loo.
