Snakes On A Plane

by Earl Morningstarr

Scenes on an Air India flight this week resembled the plot to the Samuel L Jackson film Snakes On A Plane.

The Air India A319 was thrown into turmoil when a snake was found coiled under one of the passengers seats. The plane had been on a domestic flight from Srinagar to Delhi when it was undergoing pre-flight checks before it’s next journey. The snake was disturbed during these checks and managed to slither away from the aircraft crew and escape into the air vents.

“There was commotion which scared the snake and it went further inside,” an airport official was quoted as saying by the Hindustan Times.

“The aircraft was parked at Delhi airport for maintenance purposes. There was a snake but not a cobra,” he continued.

“We have no details of what kind of a snake it was, or where it is now. We have taken up this matter with Delhi airport authorities.”
