Airliners were traumatized after they found a snake on the plane flight from Brisbane to New Zealand, according to Sky News.
The serpent fell to Queenstown Coliseum when the flight landed at 3 pm on December 15.
On the following flight, the pilot noticed a foreign object on the runway leading to the Watchtower.
New Zealand's biosecurity officers were called in to remove the snake from the runway.
A company spokesman said: He believed the snake was preserved in the undercarriage of the plane.
The plane was only three minutes late for its take off, which was the time that security officers at the airport took to catch the snake.
