I have never flown Delta before, after reading about this, I don’t think I would much like to fly with them. Surely they had the opportunity to stop what was going on, this is disgusting behaviour, what were these people thinking? In such circumstance, do the crew have the power to restrain these people as they are creating a unhygienic situation, this is a safety issue and has ramifications for all the passengers.
So what happened, the parents of the child didn’t want to take their child into a toilet. So what did they do? They laid newspapers on the airline seat and let the kid defecate on the seat. Of course the smell went all through the cabin, I am glad I was not on that flight, they showed no concern for any other person on the flight. I ask myself, what goes through their minds? Although this incident occurred back in 2014, this is something you don’t forget. Unfortunately, this was not the first incident of this occurring, so you have to ask, is this normal behaviour?
The flight was from Beijing to Detroit, that would have been a long flight, forget about eating on that flight. Whilst Chinese social media lit up, they have a point, these people did embarrass the country. This happens all the time, maybe not this exact incident, but people misbehave and bring a country into disrepute with other travelers. I just hope I am never on an aircraft where this type of incident occurs, at the very least, they should be charged and banned by the airline for any future travel – that should be a serious ban.
