  1. What happened to airline crew not being able to take stuff from strangers for obvious reasons?

  2. I’m no aviation expert but it seems like bad policy to allow crew members to eat things handed to them by passengers.

    To what end… was he trying to hijack the plane or just steal the mini liquor bottles? 🤔

  4. Guys, this has become a common ‘travel influencer’ video trope. A lot of these videos are on social media, if you just google “Giving candies / chocolates to flight crew”. I wouldn’t be surprised if this person saw one of these and was inspired to cause trouble

    Ok, the headline really is a lot of click bait. The sweets were handed to the people AFTER THE PLANE LANDED and they in the terminal, on their way to the hotel. Yes, these people are a BA crew, but not doing anything work related at the time. This is a serious incident, but it’s not like they were in the air or doing ANY crew-related activities.

    You sure they just didn’t want an excuse to pass the piss test when they came back to work?

  7. Damn 300mg will fuck up even a seasoned cannabis user with a high tolerance, let alone people without any experience

    You’d think they would have learned by now not to take candy from strangers… specially while working on a compressed tube 30,000 feet above ground

    damn, way to ruin it for everyone else. Giving the flight crew sweets is like #1 on the list of “how to get better service on your flight”

  10. I imagine they will find the guy, they literally know the exact flight he was on. The only issues might be if A: he handed the candy to them on the plane which might mean no camera footage and B: they might have all forgotten a lot of his specifics with the insane amount of weed he gave them.

    I feel like there’s a decent change on of them will remember his face and then its just going through only male pics of passengers on a flight under a certain age.

  11. What kind of moron thinks it’s a good idea to give an extremely strong marijuana edible to random people let alone a profession where they could lose their jobs if it appears on a drug test. Hope they catch the person and slap cuffs on them. At least BA seems to understand these crew members get an exemption on their next drug test.

    Jail. You can’t drug people for the fun of it, particularly when there’s a risk they could lose their jobs for it.

    This is no different to putting roofies in someone’s drink
