Chrissy Teigen live tweets as plane turns back to LAX
Chrissy Teigen has live-tweeted her experience as an All Nippon Airways flight to Tokyo had to turn back after four hours because a passenger realised they were on the wrong flight.
The unauthorised passenger reportedly had a ticket for a United Airlines flight and the plane was forced to turn back due to the 'mix up'.

Model Chrissy Teigen, who was on the flight with her singer husband John Legend, took to Twitter to share the situation with her nine million followers.
She wrote: "Why did we all get punished for this one person's mistake? Why not just land in Tokyo and send the other person back? How is this the better idea, you ask? We all have the same questions."
a flying first for me: 4 hours into an 11 hour flight and we are turning around because we have a passenger who isn't supposed to be on this plane. Why...why do we all gotta go back, I do not know

I won't be able to sleep until I know how this person figured out they were on the wrong flight. That's all I ask. 150 people have been majorly inconvenienced, please, just tell me

They keep saying the person had a United ticket. We are on ANA. So basically the boarding pass scanner is just a beedoop machine that makes beedoop noises that register to nowhere

The situation was finally sorted. Chrissy tweeted: "Getting on another flight now oh bless."
She then revealed she hoped for a new menu so they didn't have to eat the same food again.
Taking off!!! Please don't be the same menu please don't be the same menu
