A Cathay Pacific passenger got his finger stuck in the lavatory trash bin at the end of a 15 hour flight. Say what?! How do you get a finger -- in particular, your middle finger -- stuck in the lavatory trash bin? I can't even come up with a theory on this! How on earth…

You could theoretically get a finger trapped between the inner receptacle and the flap mechanism - it's happened before.

I feel bad for that poor guy but I cannot stop LMAO. May be the finger got stuck in between the actual bin and the wall lining. Thats a wild guess though. Do they allow you to stand when landing? 😛

Karma at its finest. Now we know what happens when you flip an airline off

Could be worse; a guy in New York sued Starbuck's because he apparently crushed his pecker in a faulty toilet seat at Starbuck's. Try that one at home...

i just hope the stupid incident does not cause a lawsuit against CX as so frequently incurred in usa. people expect to be spoon fed everything & cant take care of themselves with common sense.

Reminds me of the storey (or is it an urban legend?) of the person who got her hand stuck in the toilet of a Metro North train. Apparently her cell phone fell in and she tried to retrieve it.

If you've ever been on a Metro North train, you know that this would be an especially horrific experience...

I hope the poor guy got to finish his business before he got stuck.

Lucky - Have you ever tried accessing Cathay Pacific’s The Wing in Hong Kong after mid-night? I'm thinking of spending the night at the airport, either in The Wing or outside if they are closed, any suggestions?

@Jack - The Wing closes after last flight departure (currently around 1.30 am if no delayed flights) and reopens at 5 am. Ditto for all other CX lounges (in fact one closes earlier from memory).
