In a bizarre incident, American Airlines en route to Austin, Texas had to kick out an angry passenger who pulled out a disgusting yet funny act inside the flight. The American Airlines was left with no other choice as it kicked out a passenger for farting too much and also bragging about the smell. The man was removed from an American Airlines early evening flight from Phoenix, Arizona to Austin, Texas, after the unusual behaviour.
The 'farting' passenger forced the American Airlines aircraft to return to its gate and delayed by 15 to 30 minutes at the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. The incident came to the fore when a Texas-based passenger wrote on Reddit, "I was on a direct American flight from Phoenix to Austin and I was seated near the row where this situation occurred."
The passenger explained that the stinky situation on January 14 was 'kinda funny' and 'somewhat entertaining' but nothing was filmed. The passenger who was kicked out of the plane was allegedly hungover as they were "audibly disgruntled about something" after boarding the flight.
Another passenger who was on the flight wrote, "As soon as he sat down, he was grumbling about something under his breath, like 'f****** hell' or something. Once most passengers were boarded, the "grown man" reportedly said, "You thought that was rude? Well how about this smell" and farted. The witness did not know what led to the heated incident, but wrote "while kinda funny to overhear, it was uncalled for especially coming from a grown man on an airplane nonetheless".
As per US media reports, some passengers were said to be having snacks or eating food when the disgruntled man said, "Yeah, everybody let’s just eat the smelliest food possible all at the same time."
