A FLIGHT attendant has revealed the most common item that passengers lose on the plane – and how to avoid it happening to you.
A TikTok user who goes by the name 'Respect the Journey' often shares her top fips as a flight crew member.
She recently explained how people flying with wireless headphones can have problems on flights.
She told her thousands of followers: "If you fly and use AirPods, such a product like this so they don't become lost forever in the dark abyss of the airplane!"
She added in the comments: "Almost every flight someone loses them. 90 per cent of the time we never find them."
People shared their own horror stories of losing them during a flight.
