An American Airlines flight had to make an emergency landing in Phoenix after passengers noticed lice crawling in a woman’s hair, Ethan Judelson, a passenger on the flight, recounted his experience on TikTok, describing the confusion and uncertainty among passengers. He said the crew had given little information about the diversion, leaving passengers surprised. According to People, this incident happened in June. Mr Judelson described the scene in his video. I looked around, there was not a single passenger on the ground and no one was panicking. Maybe it’s not so bad and immediately after landing this woman stands in front of me and shoots and then starts walking towards the front of the plane.
Shortly after the plane made an emergency landing, Mr. Judelson overheard some conversation among the passengers. According to eyewitnesses, one or two passengers noticed lice crawling in a woman’s hair, after which they alerted the flight attendant. Mr. Judelson, who was filming a TikTok video usually shared by one or two girls, noticed the bugs crawling through the woman’s hair… and alerted the flight attendant shortly thereafter.
The flight was diverted due to medical emergency. American Airlines later issued a statement giving clarification.
Fortunately, the travelers reached Los Angeles.
