According to the Agence France-Presse report, the snake can be seen reflected in the cabin light in a viral video on twitter. It refers to the old Samuel L. Jackson film “Snakes on a Plane.”
The “very rare” incident occurred last week, according to the airline. The plane is flying from Kuala Lumpur to Tawau, when the plane’s captain discovered about the snake, he landed in Kuching, 900 kilometers away from Tawau.
The passengers transferred to another plane to continue their journey. . “At no time was the safety of guests or crew at any risk,” stated by AirAsia chief safety manager Liong Tien Ling. Jackson starred in the 2006 film “Snakes on a Plane” as an FBI agent who was trapped on a plane with a swarm of venomous snakes.
