Disgruntled passenger is removed for FARTING excessively on American Airlines flight from Phoenix to Austin

A disgruntled passenger was removed for farting excessively on an American Airlines flight from Phoenix to Austin last week, it has been claimed.

The early evening flight from the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport in Arizona to the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport in Texas was forced to return to its gate and delayed by 15 to 30 minutes, according to a passenger who was on the flight said.

The Texas-based traveler wrote on Reddit: 'I was on a direct American flight from Phoenix to Austin and I was seated near the row where this situation occurred.'

The Reddit poster described the January 14 incident as 'kinda funny' and 'somewhat entertaining' but said they did not film it.

The author remembered the passenger was 'audibly disgruntled about something, maybe hungover,' after they boarded the flight.

'As soon as he sat down, he was grumbling about something under his breath, like “f****** hell” or something,' the Reddit poster wrote.

After a majority of people were seated, the man said: 'You thought that was rude? Well how about this smell' and farted, according to the author.

They did not know what provoked that statement, but said, 'while kinda funny to overhear, it was uncalled for especially coming from a grown man on an airplane nonetheless.'

There were female passengers sitting next to the disgruntled passenger, who were 'seemingly mining their own business,' the author recalled.

They wrote: 'I didn’t catch anyone’s response to that but the guy seated next to me and I exchanged smiles and shook our heads.'

The passenger who reportedly farted said: 'Yeah, everybody let’s just eat the smelliest food possible all at the same time.'

My reply would be: “Hey, that’s what you get for putting me in coach.”

The passenger was only trying to make the plane go faster.

Could’ve been me. Have taken that flight many times and I’m pretty sure I farted at least once. And enjoyed it.

Funniest thing one of my dogs did was to audibly fart at one end of the couch, and run to the other end, and sit down, looking at where he’d been when he farted. I think he was setting the other dog up to take the blame.

ROFL! Wives don’t fart, don’t you know. Except when they do.

The first I heard it was on National Lampoon's Radio Dinner album in 1972.

We sat behind a kid who farted flagrantly and fragrantly at will during a two hour flight ten years ago. Constantly giggled too. His mother did tell him to quietly stop, because she was getting some of the “fallout”. Did no good.

My hubbie and I teach the grands that girls ‘fluff’ and guys ‘fart’. We don’t know what the other 666 ‘genders do…and not even curious.

Lol.. reminds me of a video I had seen some time ago with an old pug.

He would be settling down, about to snooze, and rip one. He would jump up startled and flip around to where the sound came from looking for the guilty one.. then do the whole process again (can’t remember how many times)..

Will see if I can find the vid ;^)
