When the box was opened, Mij leapt out of it immediately. It disappeared very quickly
down the aircraft. Several passengers shrieked. A woman stood up on her seat
screaming that there was a rat. He saw Mij's tail disappearing beneath the legs of an
Indian passenger. He dived for it, but missed. The airhostess suggested him to be
seated and that she would find the otter. After a while, Mij had returned to him. It
climbed on his knee and began to rub its nose on his face and neck.
