Locked in the Loo: SpiceJet Flight Passenger’s Unfortunate Airborne Adventure

An embarrassing situation unfolded on a SpiceJet flight from Mumbai to Bengaluru when a passenger found themselves locked inside the airplane lavatory for the duration of the flight. The incident, which occurred after the flight departed with a two-hour delay, left the passenger confined until the plane landed in Bengaluru. Despite efforts by the crew to unlock the door, the mechanism failed, leading to the unusual predicament. The crew communicated with the passenger by slipping a note under the door, asking them to stay put. After the aircraft touched down, ground staff were able to force the door open. The airline has apologized to the passenger and offered compensation.
