Bird found onboard business class flight from Singapore to Heathrow

A mynah bird was discovered on board a flight from Singapore to the UK. The bird, native to southern Asia, was found around 12 hours into the Singapore Airlines flight to London, which usually takes 14 hours. The feathery passenger had good taste: it appeared in the business class cabin. In a video posted on Facebook, the black bird is seen perched on top of a passenger’s headrest, unperturbed by the activity in the rest of the cabin. When a member of Singapore Airlines’ cabin crew tried to grab it, the black bird flew off. It's not clear how the bird managed to board the 6,736-mile flight. "It was subsequently caught by cabin crew with the assistance of some of the passengers," a Singapore Airlines spokesman said. Upon landing at Heathrow, the bird was then handed over to animal quarantine authorities.<br/>
