Top 10 most bizarre things left on planes

bizarre things left on planes

A live parrot, a glass eye and a bag of sand are among the most bizarre things left on planes each year, according to a survey of 700 international cabin crew by travel search site Skyscanner.

The list shows a surprising number of forgotten pets – the parrot aside, crew members have found  a falcon, frog and tortoise abandoned at the end of a flight. Dentures, underwear, a glass eye and a prosthetic leg were also in the long list of weird and wonderful items revealed by cabin crew. Other items were just simply random: a single egg (without packaging), a bag of sand and a written marriage proposal.

Victoria Bailie of Skyscanner said; “Many of us have left something behind when we’ve travelled such as a book or magazine. However, this survey has revealed that some people have left some quite bizarre items on board and items such as the glass eye and prosthetic leg make you wonder how they could have been missed by the owner. I’m sure one or two items have raised a few smiles among the cabin crew.”

Here are just some of the most random items that cabin crew have found on a plane:

  • Live parrot
  • Glass eye
  • Prosthetic leg
  • Box of dried fish
  • One shoe
  • Wedding dress
  • Bag of diamonds
  • Toupee/wig
  • Double bass
  • One egg (without packaging)
  • Frog
