Snakes on an (EgyptAir) plane

Passengers on EgyptAir flight 610 from Cairo to Kuwait on Monday must have been rattled when their plane was forced to make an emergency landing after a passenger was bit by a snake.
The victim, described as a Jordanian who owns a shop selling reptiles, had apparently concealed the snake in his hand luggage in order to sneak it on board the flight, Egyptian daily al-Masry al-Youm reported.
