Lightbulb Sleeping passenger gets round trip

If you haven't lived in the ME you won't believe this story.

It's in today's paper so it must be true. Musn't it?

New Delhi - An Indian woman who fell asleep on a flight to Doha unexpectedly wound up back home when no one woke her up at her destination, a media report said yesterday. Praseela, a 32-year-old villager flying for the first time to join her engineer husband who works in the Gulf, dozed off on the Air- India flight late Wednesday from the southern Indian city of Cochin. She woke up only after the plane began its return flight from the Qatari capital Thursday morning and she ended her maiden air trip where she had started, the United News of India reported. Air-India, embarrassed its staff had failed to make all passengers disembark, gave her a free ticket and she flew to Doha on Friday, the news agency said.
