 The pilot asked everyone to lay horizontally to level out the plane's weight. Needless to say, after a week in Mexico, we were all very thankful to land in New Orleans. We laugh about this trip a lot every year around the second week of March. Not scared, just young. My thankful to get off the plane flight wasn't because it was a bad flight. Flew to Sydney, Australia in 2018. Flight was delayed leaving Jackson due to weather in Atlanta.
