Animals Prompt Emergency Landing: Mouse Disrupts Flight
Emergency Landing Due to Animals: A Shocking Incident
Aplane was forced to make an emergency landing after a horrified passenger discovered a mouse in their in-flight meal. The Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) flight was en route from Oslo to Malaga, Spain, when the unsettling scene unfolded.
A Disturbing Discovery
Witness Jarle Borrestad shared on Facebook, 'Believe it or not. A lady next to me here at SAS opened the food and out jumped a mouse.' This alarming incident necessitated a diversion to Copenhagen for the safety of all onboard.
Airlines cannot allow rodents onboard due to the risk of chewed electric cables, jeopardizing aircraft safety. Fortunately, affected passengers were later transferred to a different flight to Malaga.
Airline Response
Oystein Schmidt, a spokesperson for SAS, noted, 'This is something that happens extremely rarely.' The airline reaffirmed their commitment to safety by stating they have established procedures to prevent similar incidents.
In a recent related occurrence, US airline Delta also faced trouble, resulting in an emergency landing due to cabin pressurization failure, leaving at least 10 passengers injured. Such incidents underscore the importance of maintaining safety protocols within air travel.
