An airline failed to notice a sleeping woman on their aircraft, four hours after it had landed.
The Michigan woman fell asleep on board a Trans State Airliner en-route to Philadelphia, awoke to fnd herslef trapped inside the cabin of the plane four hours after it had landed.
The woman is suing the airline citing ‘false imprisonment.’
Ginger McGuire, 36-years-old, boarded the Trans States plane at the Dulles International Airport, located just outside Washington. And during her flight to Philly, Ginger fell asleep. The plane landed around 12.30am at the Philiadelphia International Airport Group and Ginger claims that the flight crew didn’t even try to wake her, but just left her sleeping in the plane’s cabin.
At around 4am, Ginger woke to find she was alone on board the plane, unable to get out due to all of the doors being locked.
She told WDIV-TV in Detroit, “Waking up to an empty airplane and not being able to get out was very horrifying.”
She said that she walked the isle of the plane for fiften minutes, and that although she had her cell phone, and even used it to check the time, she did not think to call for help. The door finally opened, and Ginger says she was greeted by two Philly police officers and a Transportation Security Administration Officer who quizzed her for about ten minutes.
Geoffrey Fieger, Ginger’s attorney held a press conference with her in Michigan to announce her intention to sue the Trans State Airlines on charges of false imprisonment, neligence, emotional distress, and breach of contract.
They must of had some comfy chairs and pillows on that plane to leave her sound asleep for so long!
