“I look around, no one’s on the ground, no one’s freaking out. I’m like, ‘it can’t be that dire,'” he explained.”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.”The TikTok content creator recently opened up about the rather bizarre situation in an interview with People.He told the outlet: “It just seemed like one of those people who, as soon as the seatbelt sign goes off, gets up and tries to be the first to their bag.
“So the girl next to me … we were both like, ‘Why is she so rushed to get off? We’re all getting off together, calm down.'”The staff abroad the flight continued to tell passengers more information would be detailed once on the ground, according to Judelson.
However, the passenger claims the only thing travellers were told was the fact they would have to wait 12 hours for their journey to New York to continue.
“Right when we land in Phoenix we all get the email saying, ‘Here’s your voucher for the hotel.’ And we’re like, ‘Hotel, are we staying here?'” Judelson added.TikTok creator only found out there was a lice outbreak by ‘word of mouth’ as he overheard another set of passengers discussing why an emergency landing took place in Phoenix.
“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.
Eventually, the passengers did make it to Los Angeles.
