I wonder how this goes in an evacuation?
Yeah. I can see that on a ten hour flight to Tokyo or fifteen hours to Bangkok.
That triggered the memory of a years ago incident when I was flying San Diego to Wash, DC in an aisle seat. Waiting to depart, one thin, scraggly-looking guy came down the aisle, looking REALLY bad.
He sat down in the middle on the row to my right. A few minutes after takeoff, the aisle guy looks at me with a dying cow look, and I wondered what was up.
A few moments it became apparent at the smell of vomit filled the air. The scraggly guy had upchucked on his lap. He got up and slooowly walked to first class leaving vomity footprints as he went.
My stomach slammed up against my throat and I was struggling not to join him. The stewardess came through, sprinkling coffee grounds on each of his footsteps, and the air instantly deodorized, filling with the smell of fresh coffee.
The guy in the middle alongside of me woke up and said, "Man, that smells good." I told him, "You don't want to know."
I kidded with the stew that I'd bet she didn't learn that trick in school and she said, "You're right".
