There's little that's more frustrating than a delayed or canceled flight.

But it's something millions of travelers have been experiencing world wide over the last several months.


Passengers on a recent Southwest Airlines flight to Cabo, Mexico nearly missed out on arriving at the popular vacation destination when their pilot threatened to return to the gate due to the behavior of one passenger.

A passenger was apparently AirDropping nude pictures to their fellow travelers.

Teighlor Marsalis was among those on board the flight. They recorded the captain scolding the mystery "sexter" in a video subsequently posted to her TikTok account, where she goes by the handle @teighmars.

Accompanied by the caption "@robloxsouthwestair takes airdropping nudes very seriously", the 16-second video has gone on to receive over 2.2 million views.

With "Southwest Airlines" in the overlay, only the tops of the heads of Marsalis' fellow passengers could be seen in the brief video.

All of the passengers were intently listening to the captain over the loudspeaker, warning them if this behavior continued, he wasn't afraid to return to the gate.

"So here's the deal, if this continues while we're on the ground, I'm going to have to pull back to the gate, everybody's going to have to get off, we're going to have to get security involved, and vacation is going to be ruined."
"So folks, whatever that AirDrop thing is, quit sending naked pictures, let's get yourselves to Cabo."

Several viewers noted the pilot sounded like a frustrated parent, threatening to turn the car around because of their unruly children.

Others pointed out AirDropping nude pictures was no laughing matter.

Sexting might be fun, but consent is key. And there were likely children on the flight.

One person shared they were once the unlucky recipient of a nude AirDrop on a flight.

Indeed, bizarre as it might seem, this was not the first reported case of illicit AirDrops on a plane.

Nor was it even the first such occurrence to result in a viral video on TikTok.

"Cyber flashing" has been a growing problem worldwide over the last several years, and not only on airplanes.

In 2018, New York City Council members attempted to make "cyber flashing" a crime punishable by a fine of up to $1,000 or even a year in jail. Democratic New York state Senator James Skoufis is working on legislation which would make cyber flashing illegal.

Skoufis has already gained considerable support for his efforts, including from The National Organization for Women, The National Women's Political Caucus as well as the popular dating app Bumble.
