Napkins Offered After SF To London Flight Runs Out Of Toilet Paper

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) - A United Airlines flight recently ran out of toilet paper on a flight to Europe, leaving them to substitute cocktail napkins on the hours-long flight, according to the travel website FlyerTalk.

According to an online posting by a person identified as SFO_Runner, the crew of the San Francisco to London flight could not be bothered to transfer a roll from another lavatory.

SFO_Runner snapped the above photo of the incident.

The photo generated a fair amount of online response on FlyerTalk, where many were amused by the "Fly by the tip of your fingers" slogan on the replacement napkins.
