"All of a sudden, I felt somebody flick the back of my hair and on the front of me came a maggot, which I flicked off me. It felt like they were crawling all over me because it only takes one maggot to upset your world. And as they're telling us to stay calm and seated, I see a maggot looking back at me and I'm thinking, 'These are anaerobic, flesh-eating larvae that the flight attendants don't have to sit with.'"
- Airline passenger Donna Adamo crystallises an important truth. (Emphasis mine.)

Date: 2010-07-03 11:34 am (UTC)I had the local "talk radio" station on last night as background noise and the host was having a fit over this story, along with one from Atlanta about them making a 10 year throw away her pet turtle or be refused her seat on the plane. He was asking people to call in with their bad travel stories. Such a cheery way to start the long holiday weekend...
