A Vietnam Airlines flight bound for Hanoi was delayed for four hours at Danang Airport after several scorpions were found on the plane, an official was quoted saying.
The A321 aircraft, with 165 passengers on board, was about to taxi onto the runway on Tuesday evening when a crew member spotted two scorpions near a passenger`s seat, Antara news agency reported.
The captain delayed takeoff to check for more of the creepy crawlies, according to Huynh Thi Thuong Van, an official with Vietnam Airlines.
Passengers were ordered to disembark for a four-hour inspection, which detected three more scorpions on board.
“We don`t know yet how the scorpions got on the plane,” Van was quoted saying.
