Snake On A Plane Cancels Emirates Flight To Dubai by Nobody: 10:26am On Jan 10, 2017
An Emirates flight from Oman to Dubai was cancelled after staff found a snake on the plane.

Flight EK0863 from Muscat was grounded after baggage handlers found the serpent in the cargo hold.

A spokesperson for the airline, quoted by Dubai-based media, said the snake was found before passengers boarded the plane.

The aircraft was searched before re-entering service and arriving at its destination several hours later.


Emirates did not specify the species of snake, nor whether it was potentially dangerous.

Comparisons with the 2006 Samuel L Jackson thriller Snakes on a Plane, which sees passengers battle hundreds of highly poisonous snakes in mid-flight, inevitably emerged on social media.

But it's far from the first time a snake has tried to travel free of charge on planes from warm climates.

I am telling you...


The way we are quick to discredit our own is so damn appalling


The one that annoys me is comedians using the problems of Nigeria to crack jokes abroad, like WTH!!!




That was how a friend who has never visited NL said Nairaland was upgraded 2go (in a disgusting manner)

Simply because it's a Nigerian forum.
