This is the best summary I could come up with:
The tiny sugar glider – a nocturnal animal resembling a flying squirrel – broke loose on a China Eastern Airlines flight on Monday, scurrying away from its owner, hiding in the cabin and eventually forcing passengers to temporarily disembark the plane.
“On a flight from Shanghai to Jinan on June 10, 2024, a passenger surnamed Guo (female, 34 years old) violated the regulations and took a pet sugar glider on board the plane,” Shanghai Police International Airport Branch said in a statement on its Weibo social media account.
Videos posted on social media appear to show a flight attendant kneeling on the ground and looking for the furry fugitive.
It was reported that all the passengers were eventually made to disembark the plane and wait in the terminal building until the creature was captured.
Social videos reposted by local media show passengers gathered in front of a counter at the airport negotiating with airline staff.
The flight eventually departed just over an hour after its scheduled time, arriving at Ji’nan’s Yaoqiang Airport shortly before midnight, 62 minutes after it had originally been due to land.
