Spirit Airlines: Please Do Not Hide Your Monkey in Your Ponytail

Aug 8th, 2007 | By Jared Blank

A passenger on a Spirit Airlines flight from Lima, Peru to LaGuardia (connecting in Fort Lauderdale) was caught hiding a monkey in ponytail (that’s not a euphemism…he actually had a monkey under his ponytail).  During the flight to LaGuardia the monkey got loose from the ponytail (where he must have been hanging out for 7 or 8 hours) and the passenger was forced to hold the monkey on his lap.  Passengers and staff easily detected the monkey, as it was sitting in the guy’s lap.  Health officials (that’s what the story says) confiscated the monkey upon his arrival in New York.
