Most times when you’re flying all you want to do is get to your destination in the quickest way possible. Layovers, detours, delays are all words you do not want to hear mid-flight.
Unless you were on this easyJet flight from Iceland to the U.K. this week, maybe. The pilot of the plane decided to take a quick detour spinning the plane around 360 degrees to allow the passengers to see the amazing and extremely rare Northern Lights display. Seeing is from land is one thing, I can only imagine how cool it is from the air.
I would’ve been more than okay with this one, but I’m sure there were a few grumpy passengers who just wanted to get to the runway.
