(CNN) -- Tom Wagner woke up Friday night and the plane cabin was dark. And empty. Completely empty.

He looked around from his window seat near the back of the jet and wondered, "What is going on?"

He tried the jet door. It was locked.

He told CNN affiliate KTRK that he called his girlfriend, and she thought he was kidding, or crazy.

She called United Airlines and about 30 minutes later, the door opened up.

Well, I hope you don't think I'm going to miss my commuter flight home just to make sure the passengers all got off!  :lol:
Sad but true. Very funny!
 
Isn't this a violation of FAA rules.  The minimum number of flight attendants must stay on board until the last passenger exists the aircraft.  then they must do a sweep to verify.
