“A woman was caught on video sleeping comfortably in the overhead compartment of a plane, where luggage is typically stored. The incident occurred during a Southwest Airlines flight and quickly went viral on social media platforms like TikTok, amassing over five million views. While some fellow passengers were puzzled, those who recorded the video found the situation quite amusing.
A woman was spotted lying comfortably in the overhead luggage compartment, almost as if it were a bed. It remains unclear whether she was a crew member or a fellow passenger, but her behavior has certainly piqued curiosity online. Many are left wondering how she managed to climb into that confined storage space.
“How did she get up there? And she’s just chillin’ out, maxin’, relaxin’ all cool,” one TikTok user wondered, as reported by the Post.
“When someone’s in my seat but I don’t wanna bother,” commented another. “Southwest does allow you to choose your own seat,” a third user joked.
While the airline has remained silent regarding the video, this occurrence isn’t entirely unprecedented. Back in 2023, another passenger was discovered sound asleep in the overhead storage compartment during a Ryanair flight to Ibiza, Spain. The man’s descent from the overhead bin was captured on film, and he was seen laughing as he climbed down.
In 2019, a Southwest flight attendant playfully crawled into the overhead bin of a plane during boarding at Nashville International Airport in Tennessee. The airline later explained that it was simply an expression of the attendant’s sense of humor and unique personality.
During that time, Southwest Airlines issued a statement acknowledging their employees’ penchant for humor and distinctive personalities. In this particular case, a flight attendant decided to inject a brief moment of fun into the boarding process with customers.
However, it’s important to note that this departure from normal procedure doesn’t compromise safety, as Southwest Crews always prioritize safety above all else.
