A passenger, who wished to remain anonymous, said she first believed the man was only wearing a “funky mask” until the reptile started slithering over the handrails, according to the BBC.

The woman said she found the incident “really funny” and the other passengers didn’t seem bothered by the serpent.

“No one batted an eyelid,” she said.
