An American Airlines flight was forced to return due to severe farting.

A flight from American Airlines had an unexpected disruption when a passenger's excessive farting caused the plane to turn around. The incident, which took place on a flight from Phoenix to Austin on January 14, quickly gained attention on an Austin-based subreddit and was reported by People magazine.

According to witnesses, the unidentified passenger purposely caused the disruption, making loud and smelly farts while saying, "You thought that was rude? Well, how about this smell." This behavior was deemed unacceptable and immature by fellow travelers.

Unfortunately, the situation escalated as other passengers began responding to the gassy man, assuming he was using the smell to fight back against another odor coming from a nearby passenger. The flight crew was forced to take action and deplane the man, causing a delay of 15-30 minutes.

The incident was relayed by a Redditor who was seated near the man and shared that the flight attendant informed the passenger that he would not be allowed to continue on the flight. The man simply replied, "I don't understand," before quietly exiting the plane with his belongings.

Thankfully, the situation was resolved without further incident and the flight was able to continue to its destination. American Airlines has chosen not to comment publicly on the matter, perhaps wanting to avoid any further attention to the embarrassing situation.

This incident serves as a reminder to always be considerate of others, especially in confined spaces like airplanes. It also highlights the importance of addressing conflicts and disruptions in a respectful and mature manner. Let's hope this passenger learned his lesson and will think twice before causing a disturbance on a flight again.
