Passenger suffered a mid-flight ‘poop accident’. What happens next will restore your faith in humanity

A man on board a Delta Airlines flight reported a rather peculiar incident in which another passenger in the first class cabin had a “poop accident” mid-flight. The person shared this story on Reddit. The man described in the post how his fellow passengers were surprised by the situation and expected the crew to take care of it. However, he intervened and advised the staff not to clean up human waste.

“I was on a flight on Thursday where a passenger had a poop accident in the cabin that caused an incredibly foul odor throughout the cabin. The passengers wanted the flight attendant to clean it up. I approached her and told her that it was not her job and she was doing a great job under the circumstances,” the man wrote.

In addition, the man shared a photo of a note that the grateful flight attendant gave him as he exited the plane. The note read: “I apologize that your first class flight was not as pleasant as it always should be. Thank you for your understanding. I sent you some miles. Thank you for being a million miler.”

The man claimed that after his flight he contacted flight control and told them “what a great job she (a crew member) did in a stressful situation.”

Since the man’s post was shared on June 1, it has received a lot of attention from social media users. One user said, “Oh my god I would never fly again if I was the customer who had the accident.” Another commented, “I feel sorry for the person with the poop accident. How humiliating!!!”

In April, a flight from Houston to Seattle was diverted to Dallas because a dog was “doing its business in the aisle” less than an hour after takeoff. A Reddit user shared a photo of the dog’s droppings that brought the incident to light.

According to the Reddit user, a dog had done its business in the plane’s first class cabin, creating an overwhelming smell throughout the cabin. Staff attempted to clean up the mess with paper towels while first class passengers tried to avoid the unpleasant smell.
