    Snake inside AirAsia flight: Pilot diverts the flight to escape
    Digital Desk: Another strange incident has carried people's maws after passengers spotted a snake inside AirAsia flight. The video of a snake on an airbound plane makes rounds on the internet. Hana Mohsin Khan, a commercial pilot, shared the video on Twitter.

    A snake can be seen stuck in the lit area of the aeroplane, as recorded in the brief clip. The Air Asia Airbus A320-200 flew from Kuala Lumpur to Tawau, Malaysia. The snake inside AirAsia flight may have fled from a passenger's bags or crawled on board from the ground, according to reports. Isn't it bizarre? Also, the snake refused to move until the plane was diverted.

    "Yikes! Snake on a plane! Either an escaped pet from a passenger's carry on/luggage or possibly climbed its way onto the aircraft from the ground. Air Asia Airbus A320-200,Kuala Lumpur to Tawau. This dude happily stayed inside the illuminated area till the plane was diverted," read the caption of the post.
