Checked Bag Travel: Swedish Woman Rides Baggage Belt

August 27, 2008 at 11:03 AM | by | Comments (0)

What's with these Swedish airports? Tuesday, a 78-year-old woman laid down on a baggage belt at Stockholm-Arlanda Airport and was swept down a luggage chute before anyone could stop her.

Thinking the ride was part of check-in procedures, the woman, who was on the way to Germany, quickly surfaced at the airport's baggage handling center, where she was helped back to the terminal by staff.

She escaped unharmed--and even managed to catch her flight!
