Gizmobaba boss loves taking power naps, reading magazines and newspapers on a flight

You know that good feeling of finally sinking into your seat and just relaxing? Well, a New Zealand man didn’t because he was left disgusted when he saw cockroaches running around on an Air New Zealand flight.

He managed to kill a few and did a show and tell for the airline staff who were reportedly just not interested in the dead bug. But they did spray the plane on landing.

Wasps are a major problem for aircraft taking off from Brisbane. Plastic covers are placed over gauges to prevent wasps from building hives in the probes, which they can do in under 20 minutes.

While the wasps didn’t get in this time, a Malaysia Airlines flight had to return to Brisbane because of a pre-flight inspection failure that left the plastic covers on, causing an in-flight emergency.

A father of two was looking forward to a holiday in America but thanks to British Airways, he may be once bitten, twice shy.

Paul Standerwick was attacked by fleas after he and his son moved seats to get a better view while the plane landing.

Only after he landed was he informed that the seats were vacated due to the pests. To compensate for the passenger’s multiple bites, British Airways left the dad with a £50 voucher.

A Mississippi man had a Little Miss Muffet moment when he sat down on an American Airline flight in 2016.

Marcus Fleming was bitten by a reclusive brown spider, and the bite led to an infection which meant that Fleming had to have surgery or lose his thumb.

The staff at American Airlines brushed off the spider bite as a mosquito bite and Fleming is now seeking $500,000 in damages.

A snake nearly made it on a plane. This is not the brief of a horror movie but something that happened at Miami International Airport in July this year.

The Transportation Security Administration discovered a large python coiled inside an external hard drive tucked away discreetly inside a piece of luggage.

The live snake and its sneaky owner were both not allowed on their Barbados-bound flight. TSA put up a post and cheekily added, “Conversationally, this python had not gone full monty. It was wearing a nylon stocking.”
