What’s the worst thing you’ve ever had in your luggage? A busted bottle of suntan lotion? Maybe a giant melted Toblerone from the airport duty-free shop?
Whatever””it’d be pretty difficult to beat the exotic and gross stories others have about what they’ve attempted to check onto planes, and Virgin Atlantic released a list of the Top 5 Strangest Items to Turn Up at a Check-In Desk:
1. A pet tarantula hidden in a ladies coat at JFK airport.
2. A dead cow wrapped in plastic at JFK airport.
3. A bag of cutlery previously stolen from a Virgin Atlantic flight at Delhi airport.
4. A couple who fell in love on the island of Grenada decided to try and check in a bag full of sand, sea and water as a memory from the island they met and fell in love on.
5. A bag of soil and coconut trees at Grenada airport.
