Dubai: A Dubai-bound Emriates flight was cancelled after a snake was spotted on the flight.
The incident happened on Sunday when the snake was spotted on a flight from Muscat to Dubai.
"Emirates can confirm that flight EK0863 from Muscat to Dubai on 8 January 2017, was cancelled due to a detection of a snake in the cargo hold prior to passengers boarding," an airline spokesperson said.
The news was widely circulated in the social media with users making references to the 2006 action thriller Snakes on a Plane, starring Samuel L. Jackson.
