I was on a commercial international flight (HKG to LAX) about 20 years ago with someone being extradited internationally. It was really interesting given the length of the flight (I don't know if the person was just being transited through Hong Kong or originated there)bathroom break- and I actually do not know how that goes with handcuffs and an armed guard and I never really want to know
They had him in the back row of the plane on one side with two guards next to him and another in the row in front of them. I'd not be shocked if there were plainclothes officers/guards/marshalls/whomever were responsible for supervising also.
Like someone said, the door was kept open if he went to the bathroom and they just kind of blocked anyone from being able to access via the aisle or through the galley in the back.
The person was only given plastic silverware to eat.
And they had some weird heavy looking shoe things on him, plus obviously being cuffed.
