Turbulence on Air Canada flight sends food and drinks flying in the cabin
Turbulence on a recent Air Canada flight was so rough it caused food and drinks to spill all over the airplane cabin aisle and splatter onto ceiling. Flight AC19 departed from Vancouver on Friday and was on its way to Singapore when the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner suddenly hit "major bumps" and "everything went flying (including a few people!)," according to a Reddit post on the r/aircanada subreddit by user HefetzHashud, who said they were a passenger onboard. The user did not immediately respond to USA TODAY's request for comment. An Air Canada spokesperson confirmed the flight encountered "some turbulence" about three hours into the 16-hour-long journey. In the comments, the Reddit user said the turbulence lasted for around four to seven minutes and it was "one huge drop in altitude that sent everything flying." The user also commented that passengers helped the flight attendants clean up afterwards and those with wet seats were given tablecloths.<br/>
