SAS Flight Diverted After Mouse Scurries Out of Passenger's In-Flight Meal

[C0RI0LANUS]

Recently a Scandinavian Airlines flight traveling from Norway to Spain was forced to make an emergency landing in Copenhagen, Denmark after a mouse scurried out of a passenger’s in-flight meal. A passenger said the situation was surprisingly calm. All the travelers were later flown to the Spanish city of Malaga on a different plane without further incidents.

The emergency landing was part of SAS company procedures as the mouse posed a safety risk on board. As the photo below shows, rodents can chew through electrical wiring, making them strictly forbidden on most airlines.

2. "Surprisingly Calm"

I know too many people, men and women, who would completely lose their shit if they were in a plane with a mouse.

3. Catch the movie:

Mice On A Plane.

Someone had to say it.

6. "I've had it with these MF mice on this MF plane "

4. I guess people have different phobias. Too bad nobody recorded the mouse with their Smartphone.

7. SAS just sent a bill to the passenger for harboring an unpaid, undocument immigrant hideaway on the plane and

asked, not only for the cost of transportation, but the cost of the diversion and delay.

9. If he was as cute as the picture, I'd hope the passengers would remain "surprisingly calm."

We live in the real world, folks. Not a sterile, hermetically-sealed bubble.
