Eight-hour toilet stop

-

A PASSENGER aboard a Pakistani airliner couldn’t hold it in before takeoff in the UK, so she scurried to the toilet, but accidental­ly opened the emergency exit door – causing the slide to deploy, according to The New York Times.

Pakistan Internatio­nal Airlines Flight 702, which was prepared for departure from Manchester to Islamabad, ended up being delayed by almost eight hours.

The woman, who ignored the seatbelt signs, mistakenly opened the door at the rear of the plane.
