    An outraged passenger had a total meltdown and hurled a computer monitor at Frontier Airlines employees inside Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport after learning she missed her flight, footage of the altercation shows.

    Shocking video of the incident posted last month shows the incensed woman climb over a baggage check desk and begin grabbing and screaming at the airline staffers.

    After one worker pushes her back, she grabs a computer monitor and chucks it at the staff, hitting one of them in the stomach. She also picks up and slams down a second computer, the clip shows.

    The crazed woman then climbs back over while shouting “Stupid!” at the Frontier employees.

    Airplane etiquette rules debated: Which ones do you agree with?

    The traveler who filmed the freak-out told Storyful the woman had just missed her flight and “lost it” when the staff barred her from boarding the plane.

    Frontier Airlines declined to comment when contacted by The Post on Wednesday and directed all inquiries to the Chicago Police Department.
