Celebrities may enjoy some perks while flying, but when it comes to travel setbacks, we’re all in the same boat.

On Thursday, a plane was forced to make an emergency landing in Dallas. Aboard the flight was none other than UFC fighter Ronda Rousey!

Raine Maida, lead singer for the Canadian band Our Lady Peace, was also on the flight with his family. He posted a photo of his wife, Chantal, posing with Rousey on his Instagram account. He shared how their run-in with the celeb helped his kids cope with the delay.

“@RondaRousey was also on flt so kids were stoked & distracted from chaos. As was @chantalkrev #girlpower.”

Chantal then posted the photo on her Instagram account with the caption: “Flight was diverted wth equipment problems….but @rondarousey was on the plane…too much #girlpower to lose my cool!”

Hey, if you’re going to be grounded with any celebrity, it might as well be Ronda Rousey … you’ll be safe because no one wants to make her mad, not even the airline!
