Another Reason Not to Take Water Bottles on Board

Where: Australia

Qantas offshoot and LCC Jetstar has made more of a habit of hitting our headlines with good news than bad--they have mystery shoppers to keep standards high, and the airline wants us to be able to fly long haul from Oz to Europe on the cheap.

Of course, a bad news headline was waiting just around the corner: An ex-flight attendant claims that while she was a passenger on a flight from Sydney to Phuket, the Aussie soldiers sitting near her spiked her bottle of water while she was in the bathroom. She passed out, wet herself, and came to an hour later, in her words, "mortified and devastated".

We're not sure what's going on here, but the odd part is that she didn't complain to the airline--she just told a television network. Jetstar says they only have a record of her falling ill and being cared for in a curtained-off crew area. Whatever the real story, we might just be taking our water bottles with us to the bathroom in future.
