It’s common to lose your baggage when you’re travelling. We’ve even heard of people forgetting their duty-free shopping at the airport. But the recent news report about a lady boarding a flight and leaving her child at the airport left us in shock.
After boarding a flight from Jeddah to Kuala Lumpur, a passenger noticed her baby was missing. When the mother realised she had mistakenly left her baby on the terminal, she requested the flight attendant to take the plane back. Understandably, the video of the event went viral. Have a look:
Even though it wasn’t technically an ’emergency’ situation the authority made an exception to reunite the mother and baby.
Thought this was it? Nope, here are the most bizarre situations that have taken place on an aircraft.

He did it all for a Jet Airways employee who he was head over heels in love with. A senior investigator on the case said, “Last July, he had picked up a major fight on a Jet Airways flight by claiming that his meal had cockroaches. He somehow wanted to harm Jet so that the lady comes to him for a job.” The flight from Mumbai to Delhi had to be diverted to Ahmedabad because of the incident.
2. Woman drying her underwear on the flight
In another completely bizarre incident, a female passenger flying from Antalya to the Russian capital, Moscow was caught on camera drying her underwear using the overhead airconditioning vent. The video went viral online as netizens screamed, “That’s crazy!”
3. This hilarious flight attendant gives his own take on the safety announcement
When you’re a frequent flier, it becomes boring listening to the same old monologue about the safety exits and what to do during an emergency landing. However, this flight attendant gave his own take on them. At one point he said, “In the event that this flight becomes a cruise, all of you lucky people get their own itsy bitsy teeny weeny yellow polka dot bikini.”
4. Who is your travelling companion? A panda!
On a plane from China to the United States of America, one of the business class seats was given to a panda who had to be transported to the zoo. The official statement even said, “In the interests of hygiene Squee Squee wore a plastic nappy to take care of panda poop during the flight.”
