Seems like there should be an Osha violation or something about this. That’s a health hazard and while I understand there’s limited seating, it should be the plane’s responsibility to compensate the passengers for expecting them to sit in biohazardous filth, instead they just threatened them with being put on a no-fly list unless they got off the plane of their own volition with likely no compensation.
Although OHSA only protects workers so I don’t think that would apply here.
I mean, it would be in the US where OSHA is a real thing, cause OSHA is in the US, but in Canada which is, iirc, not a part of the US…
It’s literally called OHSA in parts of Canada too it just stands for something different 😂
Maybe in parts but nationwide Canada seems to use OHS.
Occupational health and safety.
Correct
Ontario has the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA).
They definitely convinced me to add Air Canada to my fuck airline list.
I don’t think there are any airlines that aren’t on my no-fly list at this point. (Actually decided to do a rather long drive for this years vacation between the cost of air travel, and the nonsense)
Welcome. There are dozens of us!
I drive if it’s less than 14 hours, but as I get older that may start to change.
Longest drive I’ve done was 18 hours (Philly to Orlando). Did that one a few times years ago when my wife would share the driving. Now she doesn’t drive so we’ve been stopping to sleep around the halfway point. Did the auto-train once. I liked it, but my wife didn’t.
We figured just renting a car at our destination would pay for the entire trip (gas, hotels etc) and then flights on top of that (and airport parking etc)
That’s an odd fetish to have, but who am I to judge.
That is insane
She added that staff had tried to cover “a bit of a foul smell” with perfume and coffee grounds.
This “covering up” makes it all sound so sinister. The poor flight crew had to clean up someone’s puke and they did the best they could with available materials. They failed, but their attempt shouldn’t be cast as some kind of furtive effort to sweep the truth under a rug.
