Mouse halts Nepal-to-Thailand flight

Everything was going peachy on a Nepal Airlines Boeing 757 at the international airport in Katmandu earlier today until a furry critter upset the balance of things.

A mouse darted out of the pantry and made its way toward the back of the plane, Fox Television reports. At that point, the crew did the only thing that made sense - they canceled the flight headed to Bangkok, Thailand, until they could find the fleet-footed rodent.

Unlike most passengers, who reach their plane via the terminal and security, the mouse likely boarded the plane via a food-catering truck, airline spokesman Raju K.C. told the Associated Press.

The crew had the jet towed to a hangar and evacuated the passengers, who did not see the critter. The plane will not hit the skies again until the mouse is found, the airline told the Associated Press.
