Women sleeps through aircraft turnaround

What can I say, PIA must have comfortable seats and blind crew.

A Frenchwoman endured an 18-hour journey from the Pakistani city of Lahore to Paris and back again after sleeping through her plane's stop in the French capital.

WTF??? Crew and cleaners need to be replaced - I thought Capts sometimes did a wander down the aisle as well

At least I have some idea of how she felt when she woke up and realised she was on the wrong plane .

Just imagine those frequent flyers she racks up.

Though it would be an extreme version of connect instead of direct

A while ago on the radio I heard the story of some guy who was partying all night and got on the train at Flinders Street Station and was meant to get off at the end of the line. The guy fell a sleep and woke up to find himself at Flinders Street station. He thought he nodded off but he looked at his watch and realised 2 hours had passed! But this woman easliy beats this guy's story!

In my younger days I've enjoyed a trip to the end of a line or two

Certainly fulfills the criteria of Actual Miles Flown

Did that box of pills say "take 2 tablets every 8 hours" or was it "take 8 tablets every 2 hours"?

That's just not fair..... I struggle to string together 4 hours sleep (aided or not) on any flight! Incredible!!!

Haven't we all?

I remember one time going back to Mitchell College, Bathurst after spending the weekend home and I had somehow slept through Bathurst and luckily woke up at Blaney early evening. I forget now how I got back to Bathurst as the trains were not that frequent.
