A flight from Arlanda to Tenerife was stopped this morning. The crew had found an unwelcome traveler.

“We have been on a mouse hunt,” says Lovisa Ernestam, deputy press officer at Swedavia.

The flight from Arlanda was supposed to take off at 8 am, but had to be postponed.

– A crew member discovered that there was a small mouse on board. This was before the passengers had boarded, says Lovisa Ernestam, deputy press officer at Swedavia.

Charter travelers to Tenerife had to wait at the gate while a mouse hunt took place on board the plane.

– I have no information about how it happened, but now the little friend is supposed to be captured and the plane is supposed to leave at 10 am, says Lovisa Ernestam.

The plane took off at 10.20, according to Swedavia's website.
