• On February 18, an Air Francepassenger named Lizzie Thompson took to Twitter after she said that a man on her flight from Paris, France, to Los Angeles, California, removed his pants and socks while mid-air.

• In a tweet, Thompson said that a flight attendant offered to move her seat after she alerted him of the pants-less passenger.

• Thompson also claimed that the man asked another rider to play ukulele music with him, and later took four mini bottles of wine from a food cart before falling asleep.

An Air France passenger took to Twitter on Monday after she says a man on her flight from Paris, France, to Los Angeles, California, removed his pants and socks while in mid-air. According to tweets from passenger Lizzie Thompson, the man allegedly removed his pants in a bathroom before takeoff, and later removed his shoes and socks. Thompson claimed that the passenger – who she said was sitting in the seat across from her – spent the remainder of the flight in his boxers.

Thompson shared photos of the alleged incident on Twitter.



He has also removed his socks



After removing some of his clothes, the man attempted to play music with another passenger who was carrying a ukulele onboard, according to Thompson.



According to her tweets, Thompson eventually alerted a flight attendant about the pants-less man, and the employee offered to move her seat.

Thompson said that she didn’t want to lose the bulkhead legroom she had, and therefore asked the attendant if he could ask the man to put his pants back on. According to Thompson, the flight attendant “just shrugged.”

Two hours into the flight, Thompson claims the man stood up, picked up four mini bottles of wine, and then fell asleep. Four hours later, she said he put on a puffy coat, but still chose to sit in his boxers.



To wrap up her Twitter thread, Thompson answered a few of the most commonly asked questions she received about her alleged experience and confirmed he didn’t play the ukulele.

To answer a few q’s I’ve seen:
1. He took pants off in the plane bathroom pre-takeoff. He put them back on pre-landing in aisle right next to me.
2. He was neither American nor French
3. No ukulele was played, sadly

Representatives for Lizzie Thompson and Air France did not immediately reply to INSIDER’s requests for comment.

I would have been more upset by the ukulele .

That passes for underwear? It’s only a lot shorter than the shorts and shirt I normally wear on the long flight to the KOW.

Usually I take off my shoes and socks after take off, then slip on the provided slippers.

Throw the airplane blanket over me, put on my head phones, hit the noise cancel button and drift off for the next 16 hrs or so, then 3-4 more hours after that.

The ukulele playing would be annoying. But then I get annoyed listening to screaming kids and crying babies for hours on end.

Unfortunately, noise cancelling doesn’t block it all.

Singapore Airlines was especially blessed to have crying babies and screaming kids. Less so on EVA Air.

This Lizzie Thompson is a nosey body and had nothing better to do than fire up a Twitter storm.

Talk about a storm in a tea cup! It's not like he got down to his jocks..




I wonder how she would've reacted if he'd gone like this
