Plane Makes Emergency Landing After Passengers Reportedly Find Lice In Woman’s Hair

People leaning their heads against the window while napping on flights is a common enough sight. However, a flight attendant strongly advises against it. Tommy Cimato, who goes by the username @tommycimato on TikTok, recently shared five things that one should never do on an airplane and he makes some valid points. "Do not touch the flush button or lever with your bare hands. It is super unsanitary and pretty gross," he says at the beginning of his video.

9 Things You Should Always Carry On A Plane, According To A Frequent Flier

I’m not sure when we, as a society, decided we were too cool for air travel—how we became so blasé about being suspended over 30,000 feet in the air, soaring in this gravity-defying tube that will get us to any pin on the map in a matter of hours. It seems to me that we’ve lost our sense of awe and wonder, and there’s no greater evidence than the shuttered plane window. Far too often, I notice window seaters on flights renouncing their privilege, turning their heads away from the magic that’s unfolding right outside their periphery. And all I can think about this sight is bad vibes.

This ice age is over. 

Experts are urging air travelers to avoid adding ice cubes to their drinks while on a plane, saying you could contract nasty germs by doing so. 

“Don’t get ice in your drink,” warned a flight attendant in a Reddit thread, detailing unsavory industry secrets. “The ice is put in a tray with a scoop, and the trays don’t get cleaned very often.”

“Every surface on the plane is touched by hundreds of people daily and not often disinfected,” the attendant continued. “We don’t have the opportunity to wash our hands at all during the beverage service.”

A passenger offered a honeymoon-bound couple their seat on the plane at a cost they weren’t willing to pay. Wondering if they were in the wrong for charging the newlyweds, the passenger asked Reddit users what they thought, detailing the situation in the popular confession forum, Am I The A**hole. The Reddit writer prefaced the story by admitting their flight was from Melbourne to Dubai, a 13-hour and 50-minute flight non-stop. Because the Redditor knew the travel time would be long, they splurged on a premium economy seat for comfort purposes. The passenger assigned to the seat over was the...
