This snake discovered that flying is a quick way to get to a destination.
Not only do snakes like getting into gauged earlobes and cars while you’re driving, but they also like to board flights to Alaska. Well, at least the massive snake in this story enjoys doing that.
Over the weekend on Ravn Alaska flight 7133, a huge snake was found loose on the plane that actually disrupted everyone a couple minutes after takeoff. And why wouldn’t it disrupt? I mean, it was found curled up under a carry-on bag. Look at this thing.

I would have lost my mind, but hey, that’s just me.
According to Anna McConnaughy, who took these photos, one of the pilots got on the intercom to tell the passengers that a snake was loose on the plane. And then this happened.
OK, it didn’t, but it may have.
“Almost right away after that announcement a boy who was sitting with his mother in the last row found the snake hidden behind his seat. The flight attendant and the pilot took control over the situation right away,” McConnaughy said.
Here’s the flight attendant being a badass.

William Walsh, a Ravn Alaska spokesperson, said that a passenger had violated policy in bringing the snake onto the plane.
“For the purpose of preserving cabin safety for the greater traveling public, Ravn Alaska prohibits all rodents, ferrets, reptiles, snakes, insects or any type of venomous or poisonous creature from being used as an emotional support animal,” Walsh stated.
I feel like a ferret would have been a tad better in this situation than a gross snake.

No word yet on whether the passenger to blame will be facing any charges.
And don’t worry, the plane didn’t break apart. They landed safely.
