I just had a 9 hour flight where both bathrooms were plugged and aisles were completely covered in puke because this kid got so sick, and refused to throw up into a bag. Every time he got sick he ran from his mom and threw up somewhere else on the plane

Left flight with puke on my backpack and shoes. Whole back of the plane was vomiting throughout the flight due to the smell. Nobody could use the bathrooms for the last 3 hours of the flight

My noise cancelling headphones were not effective

Dude. How did the fucking marshals not step in? Allowing anyone, child or not, to repeatedly spread bio hazard on other passengers is not ok. One time? Fine, kids are gross and things happen. Repeatedly? That kid is a terrorist.

Canada to Germany flight. Not much can be done while you are flying over Greenland.

The kid was mentally ill. I blame the mother. She tried to wash a blanket or something in the sink, clogging the entire plane. People were pissing into bottles

Surprised this didn't make the news really. It barely sounds like a true story

Believe it or not but not everyone is from the US. Flight marshals are mainly a US thing

Recalibrate your irony sensors.

Yeah I've always had pre flight anxiety, all the "what ifs" going through my head

I actually didn't think it could ever be so bad. Forever scared to fly ever again...

Really though this is probably the worst experience you'll ever have on a plane.

I'm taller than average so it already sucks but last year I had three flights IN A ROW where I got placed behind somebody who was obsessed with leaning back in their seat. Like they'd lean back as much as the seat would let them which was already painful but then they'd try and push it more and more and jump back into the seat which was only hurting my knees more. One was 6 hours and I literally could not sleep 1 second because of the pain. three DIFFERENT people did this! Noise cancelling headphones did not help.
