Smelly Poo In The Toilet Becomes Unbearable As British Airways Flight To Dubai Forced To Return Back

A British Airways flight to Dubai was forced to return to London due to a foul odour emanating from an overflowing toilet. Cabin crew were unable to fix the problem and the smell became unbearable for passengers seated nearby, forcing the plane to turn around near Brussels and land at Heathrow Airport. A British councillor, Abhishek Sachdev, who was aboard the airplane, said the 7-hour flight was aborted ‘because of a smelly poo in the toilet’.

He told MailOnline Travel:

‘The pilot made an announcement requesting senior cabin crew, and we knew something was a bit odd. About 10 minutes later he said you may have noticed there’s a quite pungent smell coming from one of the toilets. 

‘He said it was liquid faecal excrement, those are the words he used. He said it’s not a technical fault with the plane, and he was very adamant about that. It’s obviously disappointing to lose a whole day of your trip. You might expect it on some random airline, but you wouldn't expect it from British Airways.’

A British Airways spokesperson told said: 'We're very sorry for the discomfort to our customers. ​We provided them with hotel accommodation and rescheduled the flight to depart the next day.'
