Okay, this is crazy right here. How does someone get kicked off of a flight for complaining about vomit on their seat?
Gross, dude. Gross. I'd have thrown up myself, right then and there, if those were my seats.
And like, if there's vomit on your seat, you complain. It's just what you do.
This is inexcusable by Air Canada.
Two passengers were booted off an Air Canada flight after complaining that their seats were covered in vomit just before a five-hour trip to Montreal, according to a fellow traveler.
Susan Benson, who was on Flight 1706 departing Las Vegas on August 26, said two women alerted flight attendants to a rancid smell coming from their seats that made it unbearable to sit down…
Although the women, who were not immediately identified, were ready to accept their fate, they were told by a pilot that they needed to leave because they were rude to the flight attendants.
So they complained about the vomit, barely got any customer service, and then decided, screw it, we're gonna sit in these seats for five hours.
AND STILL THEY GOT KICKED OFF THE FLIGHT!
Bonkers!
Just absolutely bonkers that Air Canada did this to them.
Here's the account from a passenger sitting nearby:
Seriously, a no fly list?!?!
For complaining about vomit?!?!
So disrespectful. So gross. And I can't believe they were just going to take the seats and push through that five-hour flight, cuz that's beyond nasty.
Air Canada with a response:
"We are reviewing this serious matter internally and have followed up with the customers directly as our operating procedures were not followed correctly in this instance," the company said in a statement. "This includes apologizing to these customers, as they clearly did not receive the standard of care to which they were entitled, and addressing their concerns."
"Procedures were not followed correctly."
Yeah, ya think?!
Do better, Air Canada.
Do better.
