New Delhi: A Los Angeles-New York American Airlines flight made an emergency landing in Phoenix after passengers saw lice crawling in a woman’s hair mid-air. A passenger on the flight, Ethan Judelson, shared his experience on TikTok. He said that the crew provided minimal information about the diversion, leaving passengers puzzled. The incident happened in June, according to People, a report in NDTV said,
Describing the scene, Judelson said: “I look around, no one’s on the ground, no one’s freaking out. I’m like, it can’t be that dire. But we land, and as soon as we land, this woman across the aisle from me shoots up and rushes to the front of the plane.”
After the plane made an emergency landing, Judelson overheard hushed conversations among fellow passengers. According to eyewitnesses, two passengers had spotted lice crawling out of a woman’s hair, prompting them to alert the flight attendants.
“Apparently those two girls, they saw bugs crawling out of the woman’s hair … and alerted the flight attendant,” Judelson said in the TikTok video.
