On the afternoon of June 28, a China Eastern Airlines passenger plane was flying at high altitude. Suddenly, a little bird appeared in the cabin and flew over the clouds. A passenger told an upstream news reporter that the bird was suspected to be a sparrow. It flew in the cabin for less than 5 minutes before it was caught by the crew.

The passenger’s ticket shows that the flight took off from Yantai Penglai Airport at 14:50 that day, with a destination in Chengdu and a stop in Hefei. The passenger took the video at about 17:00.
senior captain Chen Jianguo said that the bird could not have entered the cabin during flight. In the cabin, equipment that can be accessed by birds usually does not pose any safety risk due to the impact or presence of birds; the cockpit has a door, and birds cannot fly in and cannot interfere with the normal operation of the cockpit. Passengers are curious, and it will not have any impact on flight safety.”
