North Carolina Teen Finds Hidden Camera In Airplane Bathroom On Charlotte Flight
If you travel any at all you know how uncomfortable the in flight bathroom is. But, this story makes me rethink using an airplane bathroom for an entirely different reason. On a recent trip from Charlotte to Boston, a North Carolina teen found what she believes to be a hidden camera in the American Airlines bathroom on her flight.
According to WCVB, a couple travelled with their daughters at the beginning of September on a trip to assist their son with a school move in Massachusetts. And, the 14 year old girl attempted to use the lavatory in her coach section of the plane. However, a male flight attendant instructed her to use the first class one instead. Although, he insisted on going in ahead of her to wash his hands. Then, upon exiting he informed the girl of a problem with the seat.
And, when the girl used the bathroom she saw a red sticker warning of a broken seat. So, after using the bathroom, she says she noticed the sticker actually contained an iPhone with an outward facing camera. She took a picture and told her parents. However, when they went to investigate, the airplane bathroom hidden camera was gone.
Also, in an update to the original story, Associated Press reports indicate troopers in Massachusetts “escorted a flight attendant from American Airlines Flight 1441 after it landed at Boston Logan International Airport.” Furthermore, the FBI is investigating. For more, see the full story on WCVB.
So, we just returned from a vacation that involved a 4 hour plane ride. And, I typically do my best to skip an in flight bathroom trip if possible. However, sometimes it’s unavoidable. But, I never suspected an airplane bathroom hidden camera might be lurking. It’s just another cautionary tale to remind us how aware we all need to be.
Here's Everywhere You Can Fly Directly To Using Frontier Airlines' All You Can Fly Pass From North Carolina
You’ve probably heard about Frontier Airlines’ all you can fly pass. For just $299 you can get unlimited flights from Sept 2, 2023 – Feb 29, 2024. Or you can purchase a monthly pass for $149 per month or an annual one for $1,999. But what does it include? And where can you actually fly on Frontier from North Carolina?
The pass includes the following according to Frontier’s website:
- An unlimited number of flights
- Access to Frontier’s domestic and international destinations
- Travel that will keep your miles from expiring
- Get confirmed bookings the day before flight departure for domestic travel and starting 10 days before flight departure for international travel
- Ability to use your Elite Status for FREE bags and seats.
Not bad right? But still, is that price worth it? You’d have to either already travel a lot or have the desire to start to travel often to get the most bang for your buck. Frontier, a budget airline, is already fairly cheap to fly with some flights just $39 or a similar price point. Of course, there are added fees for bags, refreshments, etc. But for some people, it’s worth it. This deal though, isn’t worth it if it won’t get you to destinations you want or need to travel to. So where does Frontier go from North Carolina? The answer is 23 different destinations. Most are on the east coast, but a few are out west as well as two international destinations. Of course, you could also book a connecting flight to other places as well. But for this list, we are sticking with direct flights.
These flights leave from either Charlotte or Raleigh. Raleigh offers a greater selection of destinations. But even from Charlotte, it’s not a terrible place to fly out of. The drive is less than 3 hours. And RDU is a smaller airport. When I have flown out of there security has been a breeze. The terminals are fairly small so you won’t have long walks to your gate either. So if you’re considering purchasing the Frontier Airlines’ All You Can Fly Pass and live in North Carolina, check out all the destinations it could get you to.
