That poor thing. Says they saw it 20 minutes into the flight and they didn't land til almost 2 hours later. I guess it's probably against protocol, but I'd land ASAP if I had a live animal clinging to the wing.

Very sad for the snake, but I have to admit, I was proud that the news article didn't sensationalize snakes as evil monsters. Very matter-of-fact style. It was nice that the passengers didn't freak out either. Shows some people in this world have a level head about things.
