On a scale from 1 to 10, how mad would you be if you were stuck on a plane and the person next to you was farting uncontrollably? What is the person flat out refused to stop flatulating? What would you do?
Unfortunately, this was an actual real scenario that recently occurred on a Transavia Airlines Flight from Dubai to Amsterdam that ended in a fistfight.
According to Huffington Post, the incident occurred on Transavia Airlines Flight HV6902 on Feb. 11 when two Dutchmen men sitting next to the farting passenger started to complain. Despite their complaints, the man allegedly continued to stink up the plane with his farts.
When the two passengers complained, the flight crew accused them of noisy, aggressive, and making threats. The stench eventually made the men go man and a fight broke out on the plane.
The pilots decided to make an emergency landing in Vienna. When they did, they removed the two complaining men but not the man who was farting up a storm. They also removed two Moroccan women who were sitting in the same row as the men who started the mele.
Those women are now using the Dutch budget airline.
“We had nothing to do with the whole disturbance. We distance ourselves from that. Do they sometimes think that all Moroccans cause problems? That’s why we do not let it sit,” Rotterdam law student Nora Lacchab, 25, told De Telegraaf. “We had no idea who these boys were, we just had the bad luck to be in the same row and we didn’t do anything.”
The airline maintains that the women were involved in the fight. The women, however, say that its the airline who escalated the situation.
“All I will say is that the crew were really provocative and stirred things up,” Lacchab said.
No one was arrested during the incident but the two men and two women were banned from Transavia Airlines.
“Our crew must ensure a safe flight. When passengers pose risks, they immediately intervene. Our people are trained for that,” the airline said in a statement, according to Metro. ‘They know very well where the boundaries are. Transavia is therefore square behind the cabin crew and the pilots.”
The airline filed a police report on the incident in the Netherlands and said it was “open to a conversation with these women.”
