A live parrot, a glass eye and a bag of sand are just a few of the
many bizarre items left behind on planes each year, according to our
survey of 700 international cabin crew.
A recent survey by Skyscanner revealed
an extensive list of items found on flights by cabin crew after
passengers disembarked. Animals and birds account for several of the
more unusual items, including a falcon, frog, tortoise, and a (live)
parrot.
Dentures, underwear, a glass eye and a prosthetic leg
were also on the long list of weird and wonderful items abandoned at the
end of a flight. Other random curiosities discovered include a single
egg (without packaging), a bag of sand, and a written marriage proposal.
Whether the latter was intended for a cabin crew member or a passenger
is unclear. And let's hope the wedding dress left in the overhead locker
found its owner before the big day.
When it comes to the more regular travel essentials, it seems that passengers are no less forgetful.
Almost
a quarter (24%) of crew have found a lost passport on board, which is
even higher than the number of phones (23%) and books (21%) left behind.
