Wait until the plane completely deboards and call a flight attendant.

Erica sat in her seat as the plane stopped and the doors were opened. While waiting for the other passengers to deboard, she wondered what could have happened. What had happened to her clothes?

It was glaringly obvious that people passing by her seat could see how she was dressed. The blanket simply was not enough to completely cover her body. Steeling herself, Erica still noticed varying looks of shock, disappointment, and elation. The worst part was, any one of those people could have been the one who removed her clothes while she was sleeping.

When the last person disembarked from the plane, a flight attendant approached her. "I'm going to have to ask you to disembark, please. We're going to have to prepare the plane for the next flight."

"Oh, please," Erica begged. "You have to help me." She was quick to follow up her plea by describing her plight. That she'd boarded the plane fully clothed, fallen asleep during the flight, and woken up to discover that her clothing was missing. "Please. It's so embarrassing to be in my underwear like this. Please, please help me."

The flight attendant listened intently to Erica's story, but could not tell if she was seeking attention or telling the truth, so they decided to find out more about the young girl. "Did you know anybody on board? Any enemies?" Erica shook her head. "How about somnambulism?"

"What's somnambulism?"

"Sleepwalking," the flight attendant clarified. "Is it possible you removed your clothing in your sleep?"

Erica balked at the question. Couldn't the flight attendant tell that she was seeking to find a way to cover up again? Her attention was less on how or why she was in her underwear, and more on what would happen next.
