Flight Crews And Frequent Flyers Describe The Creepiest Experiences They've Ever Had On A Flight
There are many unpleasant things flight attendants, or any airline employees, have to put up with during a flight.
Turbulence, unpleasant or unruly passengers, rambunctious children, and other annoyances are sadly just part of the job.
However, every now and then, flight crew and passengers might witness and experience something in the air that no amount of training or experience can prepare them for.
Experiences left these pilots and passengers scared and confused, possibly permanently impairing their ability to sleep soundly at night.
From the unimaginable to the genuinely inexplicable.
A Reality No One Wants To Witness
"We saw an artillery strike flying over Afghanistan on an overnight on the way LHR to HCMC."
"The missus had the window seat and was looking intently out of the window."
"I asked her what she was looking at and she replied 'lightning'."
"I looked over her shoulder and could see someone getting the good news in the middle distance."
"Nothing else looks like it and it's nothing like films and telly."
"It lasted 6 minutes which was huge in artillery terms."
"I'd seen artillery before at night but never from 10,000 m."- Crew_Doyle_
When the Military Needs To Intervene, That Can't Be Good...
"On a transatlantic flight to Germany in biz class, dead asleep."
"Wake up to announcement asking if there was 'any military or police on the plane? Please come forward!'"
"I was former military, looked to my right and see two guys beating a guy on the ground next to me."
"They needed to know how to use flex cuffs, basically zip ties."
"The guy apparently got drunk and really belligerent, started to rush the cockpit."
"This was post 9/11."
"He spent the next two hours of the flight on the floor of my row."
"Lots of very scary German police came in to take him off when we landed."- redfalresearch
No one checks the emergency door mid flight...
"The creepiest thing that happened to me was having a young, male flight attendant keep coming back to my row to check the emergency door which I was seated next to."
"He did it at least 5 times during the flight and he always managed to get way into my personal space."
"It was a late night flight, the lights were low, and I was the only one in that row."
"Every time I'd try to go to sleep, he'd be there."
"I did report it after the flight."
'Don't know if anything ever happened."- awhq
Why It's Important To Keep Your Seatbelt Securely Fastened
"Two for ya."
"Was flying from San Francisco to Sydney in a rear-facing business seat."
"Somewhere over the middle of the pacific at late night, the seatbelt light goes on and an announcement for flight attendants to take their seats."
"I look out the window and see nothing but black."
"Then I remember we are flying backwards, so I look 'forward' and see a line of thunderstorms as far as I could see."
"Crazy lightning.'
"For the next ~30 minutes we danced between the storms, turning back and forth to plot a careful path through the line."
"Seeing lightning arc above, below, to the sides."
"And never hit a single bump."
"Was totally surreal."
"Another, flying out of Patagonia, Argentina, hit some pretty significant mountain turbulence for the first hour of the flight."
"I have been in some significant turbulence before, but this was something else."
"I was in the far back of a 737, and just watched the airframe torque back and forth."
"The luggage bins were torquing up and down, left up, right down, and vise versa, by at least a foot from my vantage point."- Snoo_48368
Planes Are One Of The Last Places One Wants A False Alarm
"Flying from the Uk to Australia."
"Was over Germany roughly and over the intercom came the automated announcement 'please prepare for a sea landing. Please prepare for a sea landing'."
"There was a few minutes of confusion before they came on again and explained an air stewardess had pressed the wrong button." - funkysiger
When You Determine What's Real And What's Imaginary...
"Deep sleep at flight from JFK to LON."
"Low passengers flight."
"I felt a tap on my shoulders, followed by a whispering: 'wake up, look, look at the front'."
"I 'woke up' and saw they where serving drinks."
"I took a coffee and went back to sleep again."
"It felt like it was for real, but I was still dreaming/sleeping."
"Then a horrible nightmare hit me."
"A collision with an other plane and people who was sitting in front of me got injured by flames/etc."
"They woke me bcs I was yelling HELP!?! over and over again."
"It was just a nightmare, but felt awful real."- youmas
Never Forget... But Maybe Don't Bring It Up On A Flight?
"On a flight from Tokyo to L.A., an American guy started pacing the aisle of the plane and then went on a tangent right next to me about the Japanese children's show 'Anpanman' and 9/11."
"It was so bizarre and I remember it almost word for word."
"He was yelling 'I'm not gonna hurt anyone'."
"But, a 5-year old boy watching Anpanman just told me that 9/11 was an inside job."
"No...9/11 was real, real people died, 9/11 was real."
"'Anpanman' is brainwashing children and is racist'."
"A lot of people on the plane just heard a man yelling '9/11', which is near the top of the list of things you don't want to hear on an airplane."
"The guy was moved to the back of the plane and watched by flight attendants the rest of the flight."
"I remember a pilot going back and explaining to him that the airport police would be waiting for him when we landed."
"He was taken off first and I just remember him being surrounded and questioned by about 8 police officers when I got off the plane."- northwoods31
Unsettling Interference...
"ATC here."
"One time while on clearance delivery in the tower, I just give people the instructions on what sky-roads to take to their destination, nothing more."
"So someone called me up on the air and spoke unintelligibly."
"I know my position and I know what to listen for and so I had no clue what this guy was saying/ asking for."
"None of what I thought I heard added up."
"So I respond 'Last call, be advised you are up [my airport’s] clearance delivery'.”
"After a pause the voice says 'Uhm, what was that?'"
"So I say it again, slower and clearer."
"He goes 'I do not know what you’re saying'.”
"Baffled, I explain the situation to the tower supervisor who seems just as clueless."
"There isn’t really a protocol for this sort of thing."
"So I say it one last time 'Last call, be advised you are currently on [My A/P’s] CLEARANCE DELIVERY. Check your frequency'.”
"He didn’t respond again."
"Yeah not really creepy but certainly unusual."
"I wonder if he figured out his problem or if it was just like a trucker or someone screwing with a HAM radio that stumbled onto my channel."
"He wasn’t using prescribed phraseology so I’m not sure it was even a pilot."- Hotline-Furi
Silence Is Not Always Golden...
"I had a flight from JFK to Frankfurt Germany on Lufthansa."
"Prior to boarding I went to a bar that was near our gate and there was a very strange looking man sitting at the bar."
"Best way I could describe him was that he looked like a mannequin or what you would imagine an android would look like."
"He was older, super thin, perfect hair that looked fake and his skin looked like plastic."
"He sat at the bar with perfect posture and hardly moved at all other than to lift his glass to his mouth."
"It turned out that weirdo guy was also on my flight."
"Everything was going along normal as we prepared for departure and started our taxi out until the pilot announced that we needed to return to the gate."
"After we got to the gate I saw some police officers come on the plane and could see that they were dealing with an issue up in the first class area."
"After about 10 minutes or so I saw the weirdo guy from the bar stand up and leave the plane with the police."
"After we took off and got up to cruise I went to use the restroom and there were a couple of flight attendants talking so I asked what had happened."
"They said that the weirdo guy was not verbally responding to the attendant in first class and she was getting a very creepy vibe from the guy."
"The pilot came to try to ask the guy some questions and he just sat there and stared forward and did not respond."
"This being post 9/11 NYC they were not taking any chances so they had the guy removed from the plane."- tizod
With so many people still uneasy about flying, a flight attendant's primary duty is to ensure all passengers feel safe and comfortable.
When even flight crews can't stay calm and collected, it's a telltale sign something might be wrong...
The stress that can accompany travel on ground transportation pale to the anxiety of air travel.
But thanks to Redditor pumpboy, you may find yourself traveling with ease.
The Orignal Poster asked:
"What are your airport tips and tricks?"
You arrive at the airport. Now keep in mind of the following.
Information From The Source
"Don’t just trust the gate number on your phone app, always double check with the airport screens."
– googooachu
Checking The Gate
"Don’t even trust the gate number at the gate. I showed up five hours early at the appointed gate. Waited around with no one else showing up. Then the people behind the counter grabbed their jackets and purses and left, even as the display still showed my flight."
"I went around the corner, looked at a screen, and found my flight had been moved to a gate at the other end of the airport. Ran through the airport and caught my flight 15 minutes before it was due to board."
– tangcameo
Announcements
"Also listen to all announcements near your gate. On my last flight everybody was confused because the gate changed but the screens in the airport would not change. They had to announce about 5 times that the gate changed before everybody started to move. I had a notification on my phone from the airline saying the gate changed before they ever announced it."
– Jsully05
Being Early
"Its better to be 3 hours early than 3 minutes late, airport food is cheaper than paying to book another flight."
– Fuzzwuzzle2
Restrooms on land are better than the ones on planes.
One Last Trip
"Always pee BEFORE you board."
– mikedashe
Unpredictable Waits
"Can't emphasize this enough."
"Oh well, we should be up in the air soon enough, I can hold it until then." "The fasten seatbelt sign has to go away at some point, right?"
"These are not acceptable thought processes. I've had these bright ideas only to get in line, and board, then have to wait another 45 - 90 minutes before I get to go pee. When you get in line, make sure you're in condition to hold it for a while. It's not always this bad, but it could turn that bar any moment."
– OwlCoveredInSnow
Here are some tips about carry-ons and water bottles.
Stay Hydrated
"At the security line, put all your things (phone, wallet, watch, belt, etc) that will need to be removed in your carry-on. It makes it much more efficient rather than taking each individual article and placing it into the bin."
"Bring an empty water bottle and fill it at the fountains. Air travel dehydrates you and most of us don't drink enough fluids anyway."
– kukukele
Beware The Bottle Pressure
"Once I filled up my water bottle in the airport. Later, while in mid flight, I flipped open the spout for the first time since filling it and I guess because of the pressure difference and my bottle being air-tight as the plane ascended, opening it instantly caused half the water in the bottle to come shooting out, blasting straight up like a geyser, hitting the ceiling of the cabin and coming down spraying all the strangers around me. I sheepishly apologized."
– bcmachine
Stay Cognizant Of Access
"In your carry on or especially in winter, it’s often easier to put it all in your coat pockets."
"And also pack with access in mind, especially when travelling abroad, sometimes you have to take out your laptop sometimes you don’t. Sometimes you have to include the charger. Sometimes iPads count. Just make sure they’re all in easy to access places."
– PhiloPhocion
A Hat Trick
"I often wear a ball cap and put everything from my pockets into that. Security will often tell you to empty your pockets into your carryon, but I rarely have the space. They’re always reluctant to hand out the tiny dog bowl sized bins which would be perfect."
– pfranz
Keep It Simple
"I always pack a smallish collapsable bag and when I'm sitting by the gate waiting to board I put in the things I want to access during the flight ( book, a couple snacks, headphones) from my carry on so I dont have to dig around in the carry on during the flight."
– Curlytomato
These tips may save your sanity.
Know Your Worth
"if you get bumped from a flight because the airline overbooked and you have to wait more than two hours then you are entitled to up to 4x your fare. Certain restrictions apply but point is dont let them take advantage of you."
– AussieBlender78
Seek An Advantage
"Always try to book an early flight. My father-in-law used to travel a lot and worked in an industry connected with the airlines. He said that the schedule board usually resets between 3 and 6 in the morning, so if there are late or cancelled flights causing a chain reaction in other areas that all tends to drop out of the system when it starts fresh the next day. I’ve never had a flight that left before 8 am that was noticeably late or canceled unless it just wasn’t safe to fly."
– gemurrayx
General Summary Of Tips
"I used to board 2-4 flights every week before COVID. Here are a few things:"
- "If you can then arrive early."
- "Have 2 bags. The backpack should contain all the stuff you would like to be available at moment's notice during the flight. The bigger trolley should only be opened once you have deboarded"
- "Stay away from the line that contains old people, kids, families. Queue up behind business travelers. There is an excellent scene in Up in The Air where Clooney profiles different kind of fliers. All of it is true."
- "Flight attendants have heard every single excuse for an upgrade. You can try but good luck. However, if you do get one than stop bragging about it. It might get them into trouble."
- "Flight attendants also like small gift like little bags of treats. If you are on a longer flight this is always an option to cheer someone up and make their day."
- "If you are frequent flier get a pair of noise canceling headphones."
- "Always check in as soon the window for check in opens. Usually 24 hours before the flight."
- "A small powerbank can make a world of difference."
- "The lounge is worth the money if you have a long layover or you are a frequent flier."
- "Always keep a small bag full of regular OTC medication you may need."
"Edit: Since someone mentioned wine I recalled that you can always fill a venti/trenta Starbucks cup with an entire bottle of wine. Edit -2: This is illegal as people have mentioned below and do it at your own risk. In my profession, a lot of people are functional alcoholics."
– satya314
Dispense With Social Graces
"Airports are lawless wastelands, like Fallout 3. There are no rules, all social miscues you’ve been taught to avoid are no more. Want to sit on the floor? F'king do it. Pizza and beer for breakfast? F'king do it. Fasting walking past old people to get in line faster? F'king do it. Survive."
– DogmeatIsAGoodDog
Hold On To Personal Belongings
"Never leave your bags unattended, never leave it with someone, I know it’s good to be human and be helpful but never carry anyone’s luggage for them. You don’t know who’s carrying contrabands or not and can easily put you in a jam."
– kevinokai
Yes, traveling is stressful for passengers. But airline employees and TSA agents put with the same, if not more, amounts of stress dealing with a whole slew of irritable passengers who take their aggression out on them.
I try my best to be kind towards them as they put up with a lot of B.S.
Who knows? Your friendliness may cause airline attendants at the check-in counter to conveniently "overlook" the maximum weight limit for your check-in luggage–like it happened to me once when I took the time to acknowledge their name and flashed them my pearly whites.

Being in customer service has always been a hectic job, no matter what field the service is in. But over the course of the last few years being in any form of hospitality has become a live version of several "Game of Throne" episodes.
One career choice in particular has gotten more dangerous by the day. Flight attendants. At this point flight attendants should be renamed "Sky Warriors!"
Nowadays the flight crew have taken on the role of medic, therapist, bartender, police officer, circus wrangler, firefighter, and duct tape operator. Gone are the days of Pan Am and luxury, tranquil flying.
It's a tremendous job and these people should be treated and paid accordingly.
Redditoru/THESILENTPRINCESS06wanted to hear from all the airline staff out there working like warriors, by asking:
Flight Attendants, what are your craziest stories??
For awhile I was thinking about becoming a flight attendant. You get to travel and constantly meet new people/and right there, new people, and I was done with that thought. People are crazy, especially now.
When on Qantas...
harry potter GIFGiphy"A Qantas flight attendant, who moonlighted as a sex worker at a high-end Sydney brothel, had sex with Ralph Fiennes (Voldermort) on an international flight and then bragged to everyone about it. The press got wind of it and made all the papers and nightly news. She was sacked from Qantas, but not the brothel."
"Fish"
"Relaying a story for a flight attendant friend of mine:"
"We see all sorts of stuff, typical customer service nonsense. I have plenty of stories of people thinking they're being subtle about touching themselves when everyone around knows what's happening. For me, though, the strangest one is when the gate supervisor came up the jetbridge and paged a passenger. The passenger hit his FA call button and we let him come up to the main door. The gate supervisor asked the passenger to describe his suitcase. Then the supervisor asked him what he had in his suitcase."
"Fish."
"Apparently, this guy had packed a bunch of fish he caught into his suitcase. He managed to get it through check-in and even through the TSA screen, but after being bumped and tossed in handling, by the time it got to the plane it was wet and smelly and the baggage loaders refused to put it on the plane (thank God)."
"The gate supervisor had to explain to this guy that everyone is going to be much happier if he gets off the plane and retrieves his suitcase, and even offered him rebooking and a voucher if he would come back without the fish. He deplaned and that's the last I heard of it."
The Diddlers...
"On Christmas Day we were working the last flight of the night and it was completely full. Every seat. There was a couple in the last row window and aisle seat. He proceeds to diddle her under their coats. We notice but don't make an issue out of it. Well when she's satisfied she proceeded to return the favor for him."
"Once again we notice but don't want to make a big deal out of it. When we land they were the very last two off the airplane and the grizzly senior lady I'm flying with calls out to them as they were about half way down the aisle. "Just so you know… that's crap you pulled doesn't put you in the mile high club… that doesn't count. Merry Christmas."
"They just turned beat red and scampered off the airplane as fast as they could. I looked at her like she was crazy, sure we were about to get fired. She winked at me and said what are they going to do? Write a letter to the company that we called them out for diddling each other on the airplane? We will be fine now come on kid let's go get a Christmas cocktail."
When unwell...
"I did a flight on New Year's Day a fair few years ago. A older gentleman passed out and his wife thought he had died. The other crew all went to assist and there was a doctor onboard luckily. We had to stop the food service while the gentleman was stabilized which took ages. Once he was stable we tried the food service again. However just as we were getting the trolly from the back galley a woman dramatically collapsed in front of it so we had to deal with her."
"We get her stable and back in her seat and then go for the trolly only for her to come back and collapse again in front of the trolly. It was news years day so this woman had partied too hard the night before and was why she felt sick. A crew member from the front comes down and says they had to stop the food service as well because a kid had thrown up all over the front galley and the toilet."
"We also had a parent who kept letting their child press the call bell for fun. I had to explain twice that it was not a toy and to stop lifting your child up to press the button. The paramedics came and the guy was taken to hospital but not before his wife said that the same thing happened on their flight out. Moral of this story is don't fly if you are very unwell and don't fly hungover."
Air baby
episode 17 friends GIFGiphy"Cousin is a FA. Had a VERY pregnant woman who was en route to deliver at a different hospital in the last 2 weeks of her pregnancy. Unfortunately, her baby wasn't waiting."
"Halfway through the trip, she starts going into labor. They move first class back one row (wasn't full) so they had room. Luckily, the flight had a shock trauma cardiothoracic surgeon and a Navy corpsman on board. She didn't know she was having twins (thought they were obligated to tell you?). One didn't make it. I'm guessing that's why she went into labor."
- tidytibs
That's a whole lot of drama for a few trips in the clouds. And what is the deal with doing it on a plane? Lord, take a deep breath and wait until your destination. Nasty.
Bless You...
britney spears phone GIFGiphy"The nicest flight attendant I ever had was the one that put in my grandpa's eyedrops so my grandma didn't have to. Thank you, JetBlue!"
Back in the Day
"My mom used to be a flight attendant in the '80s and '90s. The things she remembers most are 1) how frequently flights used have to make emergency landings for passengers who had anaphylactic reactions from people eating peanuts or seafood near them."
"2) the time she was put in charge of an unaccompanied minor and ended up having to spend 4 days with the child in a crew hotel, because the child got kicked off the plane for refusing to stop painting her nails and making the cabin stink of fumes."
Just Do It
"Former flight attendant here. Funniest story always is people who are joining the mile high club. You are absolutely allowed to have sex in a lavatory and we won't stop you. People slinking out of the bathroom with crap eating grins and red faces was always hilarious."
Ice Ice Baby...
"My aunt used to be a flight attendant for the airline that is now United. Anyway, she went through CPR training and the basics of helping someone via first aid in case of emergency. On one flight, a baby was choking on an ice cube and she got the cube out of its throat and saved the babies life. So the way she saved the baby putting the baby into her arm (baby facing down) and with her other arm she firmly hit the babies back and the force of the hit ejected the ice cube from the baby's throat."
Seriously?
New Girl Facepalm GIF by HULUGiphy"Man urinated on fellow passenger for not letting him smoke."
Humanity has gone mad; between urinating smokers and people who have to be duct taped to seats, chaos reigns. Thank you sky warriors. You have my gratitude. God speed and good journey!!!

Cruise Ship Employees Break Down The Stupidest Thing They've Ever Witnessed A Passenger Doing
I will never forget my first trip on the high seas. One of my best friends and I took a fabulous trip to the paradise Bermuda. It was a glorious trip into the horizon. But beyond the beach, the grandness of the ship and the sense of peace on the water, one aspect of the trip stuck with me most.... witnessing the behavior of cruise life. Cruise life is a real thing, that people take very, very seriously. Who knew? Guests on cruise ships are crazy. I mean.... crazy. Most for good but some.... highly questionable. Workers on cruise ships deserve a medal I swear. LOLOL. I can't wait to set sail again.
Redditor u/bubba1217 wanted staff on the open seas to tell a tale or two about cruise life behavior by asking.... Cruise Ship Employees: What's the stupidest thing you've witnessed a passenger doing aboard the ship?
Out of Shanghai
Fire Extinguisher GIF by Playing With FireGiphyWorked for Royal Caribbean for 7 years, was based out of Shanghai at the time and saw a guest put a lit cigarette in a garbage can. You can guess what happened 30 seconds later. Luckily there was a fire extinguisher near by.
Not Without my Chair
Saw 2 employees escort a 30-something year old woman from the pool deck back to her cabin while others were scrambling to get some rags. She had peed while lounging on a poolside deck chair, and the huge puddle was streaming into the pool. Her excuse was she did not want to give up the chair.
So many questions....
Not a cruise ship but I worked a couple of contracts on a passenger ship. Special questions passengers asked me (stupid questions don't exist but dang it, these people came close):
1-does the crew sleep onboard? (During a multi day sail). No ma'am. We change the crew every night with a submarine with a nightshift. (This one gets asked a lot).
2-could you stop those vibrations? (Sure, let me shut down the engines quickly).
3-could you stop the ship for a few minutes (after a passenger saw a whale and wanted to take pictures).
4-can i get a tour in the crew's area? (I sort of understand this question but let's just assume that we don't really like to show our house to random people you meet at work). No sir, regulations don't allow that.
5-what do you mean I should know not to hang my clothes there? (Right after a passenger found out that the sprinkler head actually goes off if you brake the glass tube when you try to hang your clothes hanger on there. It was a nice fire fighting exercise).
Overboard
doc savage dive GIF by Warner ArchiveGiphyNot an employee, but a former frequent cruiser. I once saw someone sitting on the railings that surround the top deck of the ship. If they'd fallen, they would've been killed instantly.
Who is not Stupid?
I wasn't an employee but I was on business to work with the employees so kind of had the backdoor experience. The dumbest thing I saw was someone standing on railings, luckily it didn't last long.
But one of my favorite things I saw was in the "club" style bar. A woman maybe like 85 was straight up dancing like she were 23 to some techno. We joked that her hip replacement must have been top notch.
As a passenger I think the stupidest thing I witnessed was myself ordering liquor drinks like they weren't watered down.
Death's Trip
Die.
Hear me out. Many cruises, especially the cheaper ones, become YOLO nursing homes for the extremely elderly/unwell who want to spend their last days on vacation. Because forget everyone who will be massively inconvenienced by your death aboard a vessel in international waters. The amount of extremely frail or sick old people on cruises is staggering. There's a trend of blowing their retirement/life savings on a non stop series of cruises with the expectation that they will either die on board or their kids will put them up somewhere when they get back.
Not only is their death a problem but they tend to treat the service staff like their hospice nurses, requiring an extraordinary amount of maintenance to keep happy and comfortable. Almost any cruise employee develops an intense hatred of old people by the end of their time.
Dangerous Tides
I saw a woman walking through one of the buffet restaurants, stop pull a funny face, wiggle a bit and then carry on walking. You guessed it she had just shat herself and then left a log on the carpet and carried on straight outside to carry on eating. Absolutely vile. Of course the restaurant had to be shut until it could be cleaned properly and the whole area sanitized thoroughly.
I personally got arrested in Spain once, but I was lucky and got out of the clink before anyone noticed I was gone so I turned up to work the next morning as if nothing had happened (drunk and disorderly type of thing)
I'm sure I can think of more given time...
The stupidest thing I've ever seen was probably on one of those weekend booze cruises. There was a group of former cheerleaders who were clearly out of practice and very drunk. They attempted to do a pyramid on the pool deck and 2 out of the 3 ended up in the infirmary.
The stupidest thing I've ever done when I was working on ships? I got drunk on Absinthe in St. Petersburg, Russia, and nearly got arrested before I got back to the ship.
Stay Sober
Drinking so much they fell down a flight of stairs and broke their spine. Putting a still smoldering cigarette butt into a trash can inside the ship and setting the can on fire. Both happened while I was working onboard, seen by coworkers. Other than that, just really stupid questions and any generic dumb crap customers do at retail/hospitality places/restaurants on land.

Ride Share Drivers Reveal The Most Entertaining Situations They've Ever Been In With Passengers
Way back in the day, HBO had a show called Taxi-Cab Confessions. The premise was simple, taxi drivers come across some of the most interesting people day in and day out - so why not put a camera in the cab and see what we can learn. It turned the cab into a confessional booth - and people loved it.
The show may be a thing of the past, but the premise is just as solid now as it was then. Ride share drivers absolutely meet some serious "characters" and we still want to know all about it.
Reddit user Baaraban asked:
Welcome to the confessional, my friends. Things are about to get interesting. Here are some of the more popular responses:
