A Southwest Airlines flight landed at Chicago’s Midway Airport and was met by police. Allegedly, one female passenger took off her clothes mid-flight and defecated on her seat. As a result, the plane was taken out of service to undergo cleaning.
Southwest Airlines Flight 418 took off from Philadelphia and arrived at Chicago Midway International Airport on Saturday, April 26. During the flight, one of the female passengers took off her clothing and pooped on her seat.
As a result, police enforcement and medical workers arrived at the Chicago airport to greet the flight and the woman. It is currently unclear what happened to the woman when the plane landed. However, we temporarily took the plane out of service for cleaning.
Southwest Airlines issued a statement soon after the incident. In it, the airline stated that police and medical staff reacted to “a situation involving a customer.”
“Our teams are reaching out to those onboard to apologize for the situation and any delays to their travel plans,” the statement reads. “Nothing is more important to Southwest than the safety of our customers and employees, and we appreciate the professionalism of our flight crew.”
Similar Plane Incident
This weird occurrence occurs nearly two months after a female passenger ran in the buff down a Southwest jet in Houston. According to ACB 13, the woman apparently stripped inside the plane. She behaved erratically for nearly 25 minutes. The plane was eventually forced to return to a gate at William P. Hobby Airport.
When the woman returned to the gate, the Houston Police Department took her away for medical evaluation. However, it was unclear whether she would face prosecution as a result of the buff episode. Southwest Airlines did, however, issue a statement expressing regret to travelers for the flight delay.
“Local law enforcement met Flight 733 from Houston to Phoenix Monday afternoon after it returned to the gate because of a customer situation onboard,” the airline said. “We’ve reached out to customers to apologize for the delay and appreciate their patience as our teams worked to get them to their destinations as quickly as possible.”
