The woman - who was flying with Ural Airlines from Turkey to Moscow - spent around 20 minutes waving the black and white pants above her head, Mirror Online reports.

The footage was captured by another passenger who used their phone to film the unique way of drying underwear.

Although the woman didn't seem phased by the act, other passengers were shocked and others came to conclusion she was drying a pair of children's pants after one of her children had an accident.
