Analisa Josefa Corr, 53, and James Alexander Corr, 45, faced Sydney Downing Centre local court today, where it was agreed their passports would be returned to them under varied bail conditions.

Ms Corr is the daughter of former Philippines president Ferdinand Marcos Sr and half-sister to the current president.

She is accused of assaulting a fellow passenger outside a plane toilet after the couple allegedly consumed alcohol they had brought themselves onto the December 28 flight.

After the Jetstar plane landed in Sydney the pair were escorted off and arrested before being taken to a nearby police station and charged.

Deputy Chief Magistrate Michael Antrum agreed today to return the couple’s passports on conditions including that they do not drink on aircraft or at any point in Australian international or domestic airport departure halls

They also agreed to deposit $20,000 each with the court, which will be forfeited if they breach the conditions.

Ms Corr’s lawyer, Jasmina Ceic, told the court her client needed her passport to travel overseas for a “project”.

“She’s currently undertaking a project in Indonesia and intends to stay there … until the end of March,” Ceic said.

An online biography for Ms Corr lists her as a professional photographer and the owner of a photography business based in Mermaid Beach, Queensland. 

An application by Mr Corr’s lawyer, Rima Dabliz, to have his bail conditions dispensed with entirely was rejected. However, a condition that he continue to reside at a specific residential address was scrapped.

Ms Corr was charged with one count of common assault over the alleged in-flight incident. Both are facing two counts of failing to comply with cabin crew safety directions and consuming alcohol not provided by flight assistants.

They previously pleaded not guilty to all charges.

Marcos Sr was president of the Philippines from 1965 until 1986, when he was deposed following the historic pro-democracy ‘People Power Revolution’.

He was convicted of murdering a political rival of his father’s in 1939, but was acquitted one year later.

Marcos Sr died while in exile in Hawaii in 1989. 

His son Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr was elected president in 2022. 

Jetstar declined to comment on the alleged incident involving the Corrs and did not directly say if the Corrs had been blacklisted or would be allowed to fly the airline again.

“We will never tolerate disruptive behaviour on our aircraft,” a spokesman said. 

“The safety and wellbeing of customers and crew is our number one priority.”
