When we go on a flight, we are bound to see many weird things that could, sometimes, be a nuisance to passengers. For example, a man having his smelly feet out or a man who farts continuously. Like this man who farted endlessly on a flight and caused it to make an emergency landing in Vienna.
According to The Star, the flight that was Amsterdam-bound was forced to make an emergency landing in Vienna when an older man refused to stop farting despite the repeated requests from two Dutch men. Guess he couldn’t hold it in!
Due to this, the Transavia Airlines flight had to make an unscheduled stop at the Vienna International Airport after a heated exchange broke out between him and the men. The fight also reportedly involved a flight attendant who had tried to intervene.
Thus, upon landing in Vienna, the Austrian police officers who were accompanied by dogs, came on board the aircraft and escorted four people, two Dutch men and two Dutch-Moroccan sisters, off the plane.

However, one of the sisters, Nora Lachhab, 25, told De Telegraaf that she was puzzled when she and her sister had to be pulled off the flight.
“The strange thing was that we also had to leave the aircraft when we did not know these guys at all. We happened to be in the same row, but did not do anything to justify the bizarre behaviour of the Transavia crew,” she said.
On the contrary, though, a Transavia Airlines spokesman said that the women had reportedly misbehaved and verbally abused others. Besides that, he had also confirmed that the man who was unable to restrain himself from farting was involved in the incident.
As a result, the four passengers were forced to make alternative travel arrangements from Vienna to Amsterdam as they were banned from the airline. Oh no! Meanwhile, it was unsure what had happened to the man who could not stop farting and it was also not reported whether his flatulence was a medical condition. Maybe it was.
With that said, the next time we’re on a flight, let’s be a bit more considerate of others, especially the ones sitting next to us. Also, if your neighbour in the next seat is making you feel uncomfortable, it’s best to seek help from the flight attendants!
