Passenger wakes up on LOCKED plane in the dark after staff failed to see him asleep.

[Meanderer]

• Tom Wagner woke up in a locked and freezing airplane cabin during a layover in Houston from Louisiana
  
• He called his girlfriend who called the airline and he was finally freed
• United Express told him to keep 'hush-hush' about the incident and gifted him with an amenities kit that included a toothbrush and deoderant

I guess a few people will be questioned about this lapse of security.

It's bad enough when it happens on a school bus, but this happening on an airplane is hard to believe.

Oh, that explains it .... I was having a hard time understanding freezing and Houston in the same sentence... lol

We did have a cold (freezing) spell last December.

I guess it's safe to say this guy has no fear of flying. I won't say I'm afraid of flying but I've never fallen that deeply into sleep either.

Can't think of a better reason to own a cell phone then THAT incident....although there are DOZENS of other good reasons.
