Airline employees actively take measures to control rodents, trying to prevent them from getting on board planes because it can cause damage to electrical systems.

However, recently the plane had to make an emergency landing after one of the passengers found a mouse in the in-flight meal. Jarl Borrestad, who was on board, told about the incident. The information is published by Metro.

A Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) flight was traveling from Oslo to Malaga, Spain, when a rodent was found on board. For safety reasons, the plane was diverted to Copenhagen.

Jarl Borrestad described the incident in more detail on Facebook: “Believe it or not. The lady next to me at SAS opened the food and a mouse jumped out. Now we turned around and landed in Copenhagen Airport to change the flight.”

It is noted that it is not known whether the mouse was seen again after its appearance. Airlines take the issue of rodents on board very seriously, as it can threaten electrical cables.

Passengers were later transferred to another plane to Malaga. Company representative Oystein Schmidt said that such cases are extremely rare: “We have developed procedures for such situations, which also include checking with our suppliers to ensure that this does not happen again.”
