FP says Air Canada tells two passengers the vomit's OK

2023-09-06 09:27 ET - In the News

The National Post reports in its Wednesday edition that Air Canada has apologized to two women who were kicked off their flight after they objected to having to sit in vomit-covered seats. The Post's Tyler Dawson quotes the airline saying in a statement, "They clearly did not receive the standard of care to which they were entitled." Canada's national airline declined to answer questions about the incident. Susan Benson, who was a passenger on the Air Canada flight from Las Vegas to Montreal, said on Facebook last week that she was a witness to the Aug. 26 incident. Ms. Benson wrote in the post that her understanding was that someone had vomited on a previous flight, and Air Canada staff had attempted to clean it up by sprinkling coffee grounds and spraying perfume. "They got themselves settled with blankets and wipes and next thing we knew the pilot came down the aisle and very calmly knelt down and told the two ladies that they had two choices: They could leave the plane on their own accord and organize flights on their own dime, or they would be escorted off the plane by security and placed on a no fly list!" Ms. Benson wrote. The pilot then walked away and security came and escorted the two women off the plane.
