In a startling incident on Friday morning, passengers aboard an Air Canada flight found themselves in chaos when severe turbulence threw them, their food, and drinks across the cabin during an already long journey.

Flight AC19, which was making its way from Vancouver to Singapore, was just two hours into the nearly 16-hour flight when it encountered sudden and severe turbulence over the North Pacific Ocean. The passengers onboard the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner were met with what one eyewitness described as “major bumps,” leading to a surreal scene where drinks dripped from the ceiling and airplane meals littered the aisle.

A fellow traveler recounted the harrowing experience on Reddit, sharing images of the mess with the caption: “About two hours into the flight from YVR-SIN we hit some major bumps and everything went flying (including a few people!). Luckily no injuries from what I could tell. Kudos to the crew for keeping everyone under control, and don’t forget to wear your seatbelt!!” The unexpected turbulence left many passengers in shock, with one stating, “It felt like one of those roller coasters where you have several seconds of weightlessness. I had coffee dripping on me from the ceiling and was left picking rice out of my hair afterwards.”},{
