A United Airlines passenger sat in a window seat and filmed herself pulling on the plastic trim around the cabin window. With gentle pressure, the entire interior panel came loose in her hand and swung inward, exposing a gap behind the trim and a clear view of the tarmac and airport vehicles through the structural window glass. On-screen text over the clip read, “Ummm @UnitedAirlines is this safe????”
Carl, who posts on TikTok as @carls.inn, shared the short video with the caption “it’s never a good time flying with @United Airlines.” The post has drawn 4.8 million views, 316,400 likes, and around 1,100 comments.
