It may not be Webster's dictionary or the OED, but Urban Dictionary has coined a new phrase in response to Northwest flight 188, which last week overshot its destination by 150nm.
Welcome to your lexicon "Northwest Nap", today's Urban Dictionary Word of the Day.
Urban Dictionary defines it as:

Urban Dictionary defines it as:
A very deep sleep where you are unable to hear telephones, text messages, and even the Air Force.
Named to honor the two fine pilots from Northwest Airlines and there [sic] little "in flight snooze"
Named to honor the two fine pilots from Northwest Airlines and there [sic] little "in flight snooze"
"Dude, I was so tired yesterday afternoon, I took a Northwest Nap. My girl called me 15 times and I didn't hear a thing"
It should be noted, of course, that the pilots claim the extra flying was due to a discussion of crew scheduling procedures and not because they fell asleep.
