Due to indecent behaviour on the plane, American Airlines removed a man from a flight from Phoenix, Arizona to Austin, Texas. The flight was stopped on January 14, 2024, because of a man who argued with a passenger and, in the midst of the conflict, deliberately spoiled the air on the plane.

This was reported on Reddit page by an eyewitness and passenger of the flight under the nickname @Glamgaltx, who described the situation on board. MadameNoire reports.

According to the witness, minor conflicts caused by a man who was in a bad mood occurred during boarding and continued on board the plane.

"I accidentally hear him say loudly, "You thought that was rude? How about this smell" and farted. I don't know what triggered this comment, and while it's funny to overhear, it was unwarranted, especially coming from a grown man on an airplane. The people sitting directly next to him were women who seemed to be minding their own business," the passenger said in a statement.

The user @Glamgaltx added that before taking off, several passengers, ignoring the man, opened their food to have a pre-flight snack. However, the grumpy passenger did not like the smell of the food, so he complained in an aggressive manner, after which he and another passenger had a verbal altercation.

As a result, the plane had to be delayed on the runway, and the flight attendants asked the man to leave the plane.
