This genius flight crew ran a ‘toilet paper race’ to help pass time on a delayed flight
On the four-hour flight from North Carolina to Colorado, a Southwest Airlines crew started a competition between the two sides of the aircraft
TIME can really drag on when you’re stuck 30,000 feet in the air with hundreds of strangers.
So the cabin crew on one Southwest Airlines flight recently more than earned their keep after turning a plane delay into a fun game for the entire plane.
To pass the time on a four-hour flight from North Carolina to Colorado, the crew started a competition between the two sides of the aircraft.
They divided the passengers into two teams and held a “toilet paper race”.
The aim of the game was to see which side of the plane could unravel a toilet paper roll down the length of the cabin the quickest.
The winning side reportedly got to deplane first, according to WFAA.
Marcie Villarreal, who said she was on the winning side, took a video of the mid-flight race and posted it to .
She said: “I’ve been flying different airlines my whole life, and just when I think I’ve seen it all, your flight attendants decide to do a toilet paper race.
"Hands down the funnest flight ever - and I was even travelling with my baby."
Southwest Airlines then shared her post, writing: “Good speed. Great form. These Passengers may have a future in professional toilet paper roll racing.”
It's the second time in a week that Southwest Airlines staff have made the news.
