Plane passenger climbs into overhead bin and takes a nap — and she’s not the first


This sleepy traveler has bin places.

A Southwest Airlines passenger flummoxed fellow flyers after she was filmed napping in the plane’s overhead bin, as seen in a video with 5.1 million views on TikTok.

“Southwest is wildin’,” reads the caption to the curious clip, which shows the unnamed person nonchalantly lying lengthwise in the overhead locker as if preparing for cryogenic sleep.

The clip then cuts to the videographers who are laughing hysterically over the bizarre spectacle.

It’s yet unclear if the inflight napper was a passenger or crew member or what their motivation was for treating the baggage storage container as a slumber pod.

Nonetheless, the stowaway’s suitcase cosplay raised eyebrows online with one incredulous commenter writing, “I need more information.”

“How did she get up there??” wondered another. “AND she’s just chillin’ out, maxin’, relaxin’ all cool.”

“When someone’s in my seat but I don’t wanna bother,” quipped a third.

“Southwest does allow you to choose your own seat,” joked one commenter in reference to the budget carrier’s first come first serve seating policy.

The Post reached out to Southwest Airlines for comment.

Interestingly, this is not the first person to get caught lounging in the luggage locker.

Last summer, a passenger baffled the masses after he was filmed waking up in the overhead storage bin on a Ryanair flight leaving Ibiza, Spain.

In the bizarre video, the unidentified man is seen giggling as he unfurls himself from the storage area.

Meanwhile, in 2019, a Southwest Airlines flight attendant weirded out passengers after sequestering herself in the bin on a plane at Nashville International Airport in Tennessee.

Like with the latest inflight sleeper, the reasons for their bizarre choice of resting arrangement remain unclear.
