"When police arrived, they met with the defendant and he was arrested."
Thomson told officers they could not take him away as he was on his honeymoon and screamed for ten minutes as he was put in handcuffs.
The window cleaner also told his mortified wife, who has stuck by him, to film the incident and told her to get a lawyer.
When quizzed by police, he insisted he had sworn in "exasperation" rather than anger after seeing the "look of disappointment and anguish" on Jenna's face.
His lawyer Alistair Reid told the court: "He is ordinarily a very responsible and respectable man, works as a window fitter, is married and has two daughters.
"He has a number of family members in Majorca, including his father. This incident has caused him significant difficulties in terms of how to fly there."
As well as a suspended jail term, Thomson was also ordered to complete 180 hours of unpaid work and pay costs of ￡510.
Jet2 have also banned him from flying with them for 12 months.
Recorder Jennifer Cleeve said: "You are confined in a tube in the sky and the safety of other passengers may well be put in jeopardy simply because of a relatively small incident that may have catastrophic consequences which may be unforeseen.
