The incredible image showed two majestic natural phenomena, including Iceland's volcanic eruption and the Northern Lights.
Sophie Molloy was lucky to witness and capture a truly extraordinary event on her phone, which she described as a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
She shared the breathtaking photographs taken during the flight and said everyone on the EasyJet flight got a chance to enjoy the beautiful scene.
During the EasyJet flight, Molloy shared the breathtaking photos she took. She also said that, beside her, every passenger on the plane had the opportunity to partake in the awe-inspiring scene.
In the interview with the Daily Mail, she said, 'We could see the eruption from the aircraft windows; those on the right-hand side saw it erupt.
She added, 'The passengers on the plane were all in good spirits. It was a nice atmosphere, with the majority of passengers moving from their seats to allow others a look'
A remarkable photograph was captured, showing the two moments of nature's most spectacular phenomena.
The amazing picture not only shows Iceland's volcanic eruption dominating in the sky but also the Northern Lights gracing the atmosphere, treating passengers on a delayed flight out of the country to an incredible display.
According to the report, almost all flights from Reykjavik Keflavik International Airport were delayed last night, which included the flight of Sophie.
The reason for the flight delay was that some passengers did not want to fly; one of them had been drinking, and heavy fog had persisted in Geneva for several hours.
However, she appreciates the flight delay because, if that were not the case, she and the passengers on the plane would have missed the eruption entirely.

According to her, the passengers seated on the right side of the aircraft witnessed the eruption.
Iceland is a magnet for tourists seeking glimpses of auroras and active volcanoes; however, now, holidaymakers can see both incredible sights in one go.
Besides the excitement of witnessing the incredible nature, passengers are concerned about the well-being of those in the affected area. They hoped that "the area would be okay and that there wouldn't be too much damage, especially for residents."
While visually stunning images have emerged from the volcanic eruption, many residents are fearing for their homes. They are concerned about the town of Grindavik, situated in the volcano's shadow.
