Imagine you’re just settling in for your 12-hour or so flight from Paris to Los Angeles when the dude next to you takes off his pants and decides he’s just going to take this flight in his boxers.
Well, that’s exactly what happened to this Twitter user on Monday:
The man in the seat across from me has taken HIS PANTS OFF for the flight and is just in his boxers. Flight attendants seem unconcerned. This is going to be a long flight @AirFranceFR #CDG to #LAX pic.twitter.com/Z0EfktDwpD

He also felt socks were too confining for the trip:

And then a guy with a ukulele showed up to REALLY get the party started:
He just shouted at a man who boarded with a ukulele (also have questions) to COME SIT WITH ME AND MAKE SOME MUSIC. Wtf is going on.

Flight attendants, for some reason, were totally cool with it all:
Update @AirFranceFR – alerted the flight attendant. He offered to move me (which would mean losing my bulkhead legroom) but just shrugged when I suggested he ask the man to put his pants back on.

Later on in the flight, he stocked up on booze and got cold so instead of putting on his pants or socks he put on this winter coat:

Just landed. 2 hours in he stood up and took 4 mini bottles of wine from the cart. Then he fell asleep. Then 6 hours in he got cold so PUT ON HIS PUFFY JACKET pic.twitter.com/wNFq9L2bkH

Or the flight attendant could have told this guy to put his f***ing pants back on. What is wrong with you, Air France?
Finally, his pants went back on. Good news: nothing bonds a group of passengers like a man half naked in your section. Shout out to the flight attendant who slipped me extra wine and did keep checking in to make sure I was good.

More details and we’re sad the ukulele player never got involved in this saga:
To answer a few q’s I’ve seen:
1. He took pants off in the plane bathroom pre-takeoff. He put them back on pre-landing in aisle right next to me.
2. He was neither American nor French
3. No ukulele was played, sadly@airfrance #CDG to #LAX— Lizzie Thompson (@Lizzie_Thompson) February 19, 2019
