A video going viral on social media, purportedly from an Air India flight, has left netizens bewildered. The 45-second clip shows passengers sitting on one side of the plane while the other side is completely empty as water leaks through the flight’s overhead bins.

A user on X (@baldwhiner) posted the video on Monday and it left netizens perplexed. It is not clear when the video was shot and where the flight was headed. The passengers are seen resting on one side of the plane because of the leakage. Towards the end of the video, the pilot is heard addressing the issue. The man, who posted the video, wrote a sarcastic caption which said, “Air India…. fly with us – it’s not a trip…it’s an immersive experience.”

“This is a technical glitch. Can happen with any airline. Looks like the passengers are more comfortable than guys who propagate the video to defame the airline…” a user commented. The man who posted the video replied to the user and said “at 32k feet one has to endure n look comfy”.

“Some left their fully filled water bottle in cabin luggage , that might be the reason this is why they ask us to keep water bottles with us. dont just simply blame the company,” said another. The poster also said he did not record the video himself and found it on social media.
