A social media post from an Air India flight from Delhi to Dubai has recently gone viral, showing an unusual entry in the aircraft’s cabin crew defect logbook. The post was shared by an aviation journalist, according to her social media profile. The logbook recorded a passenger complaint along with the rectification step taken by the aircraft authorities, but it was the crew’s peculiar phrasing that caught the internet’s attention.
The cabin crew’s reaction to the complaint read: “Cockroach hanged to until death,” an entry that was made on October 24. The strange wording immediately caught the eye of netizens, triggering a maelstrom of reactions across social media sites.
Netizens React with Humor and Wit
Social media users were quick to comment on the viral post, sharing humorous takes and witty remarks. One user said, “This is the best thing in a long time. Evidence removed.” Another joked, “I hope he had proper representation by a good lawyer in the court case. I think the judge was too strict.” A third user added, “The cockroach should have been deboarded midflight through the Emergency door.”
The post highlights how even routine aircraft maintenance records can take on a life of their own when paired with quirky phrasing. Aviation enthusiasts and casual viewers alike have found themselves amused by the unconventional approach of the Air India crew.
Air India Responds?
While the airline has not issued an official statement regarding the viral logbook entry, the post has generated widespread engagement online. Experts note that cabin crews are required to document all passenger complaints and maintenance issues carefully, which sometimes leads to unusual wording when describing rectifications.
