After flying for about eight hours, a Tokyo-bound flight, All Nippon Airways, has returned to Los Angeles, for carrying a wrong passenger, Punch reports.
The crew reportedly discovered that one of the passengers had boarded the wrong plane, thus causing the pilot to turn the aircraft around.

The development was tweeted live as it unfolded by top American model, Chrissy Teigen, who was on-board the flight.
