A flight passenger has shared the incredible view she was lucky to have while flying to Alaska, telling followers why they should always consider booking the window seat for their journeys.

A man has been applauded for what he said to a fellow passenger after she sat in his seat and later wanted to switch back to her original spot.

A window-seat passenger described the plane as skidding on its side and finding himself upside-down. At least 18 people were injured, officials said.
