According to a TikTok video posted by @protokicks that received over 42,000 likes, even the flight attendants helped connect everything to watch the game live.
First, a passenger’s iPad was hung up for everyone to see the footage. Then a flight attendant uses the aircraft’s communication system to broadcast the game description.
Several passengers gather at the front of the plane to share this very special moment.
According to the images, the Air France flight appeared to be leaving Charles-de-Gaulle for Canada.
Comments have multiplied under the post, with some being quite hilarious.
“Those who have a phobia of sweaty airplanes,” introduces Roxane.
Or: “Nobody at the controls of the plane” and “The pilots are Argentines!”
“Imagine the guy who wanted to travel quietly” or “If you don’t like football, you can smoke a cigarette outside”.
Unfortunately, despite a particularly thrilling game, the French were unable to celebrate on board the plane due to the Blues’ defeat.
