The matches were safety matches allowed in carryon luggage under Transportation Security Administration rules. Not for long.

""It turned out she was trying to conceal body odor,"I hope that "body odor" wasn't a fart, or the whole thing coulda been somethin' MUCH more serious!

More than likely one of the Anacostia girls. They dont bathe too frequently there.

Though the report doesn't say, I'd assume she'd lit it in the restroom after punishing the toilet. As a frequent airline passenger, I wish Boeing, Airbus, and the airlines would do something to help bathroom sanitation on these planes - sitting near a restroom towards the end of a long flight is extremely unappealing.

Thank you for the reminder that matches take care of THAT body odor.
Can you imagine this woman sitting in her seat, repeatedly lighting a match under each armpit? LOL

That's what I think too. She probably thought she was doing the other passengers a favor.

I agree. Some of those planes are like a flying outhouse.

Reminds me of the time I got a first class upgrade on a TWA flight from St. Louis to San Fran. On climb-out, the first class lav failed and a blue-green tidal wave went down the aisle, soaking everything. We put into KC and, when they couldn't find a spare aircraft, they decided to "fix" the failed one. We took off about 4 hours later on a less-than-pleasant flight. I think that was my last-ever TWA flight. Seeing that happen once in my life was enough for me.
