How do they know it was feces? Did they taste it.
I have children. Could have been a snickers? Would I have wanted to examine it? Heck no.
Ben may be right about the authenticity of it.
1. No previous ‘pooping’ I mean post before—-As Ben have mentioned in his post ‘First, the user who shared this story had no posts prior to sharing this’
2. Two months after the supposed incident to ‘poop’ about it
3. Did not want to make a poop about it because according to this flyer: ‘I was about to scream and yell at the time, but I knew if I did so, the other passenger would notice what was happening and it would not be good for United’—-this person actually cared about what is good or bad for the airline? When was the last time anyone said that they didn’t want to make a company look bad especially if the company was at fault? Is this person making s- -t up?
4. ‘and the resolution given does not make sense at all’—-So, what’s the resolution? Was there ever one? What did not make sense? Was it the smelling sense?
5. Not an expert but was it AI generated or was it done by building up the emotions?
Didn’t it smell?!?!? Usually poop has a very distinct smell.
Ben, your site is getting very annoying when in a long response, I’m typing the website refreshes it and deletes everything (losing everything that I spent my time typing).
So, something similar happened to me on my way to Cancun this past Thursday. I was seated two rows behind my three kids. Since it was a full flight, about 40 to 60 minutes before landing, I noticed a foul smell. Initially, I thought it was probably a kid who had a diaper accident, but 15 minutes later, the smell disappeared.
Upon landing and at the luggage pick-up, my son asked me to give him a wet nap for a chocolate stain. As I helped him clean it, I noticed the smell again. That’s when I realized it was poop. I asked him where his bag was placed, and he said under the seat. As soon as he said that, I put two and two together. The poop smell was coming from the person in front of him who had diarrhea, and it had seeped down the seat and hit his bag. Fun way to start a vacation, good thing it was just 2 specks.

Talked to a friend working for a supplier at a major international airport, who told me that it's totally impossible to have unwashed laundry back on a new flight.
The dirty one has its own collector. The unused one is checked. The collector for dirty laundry is never used for washed laundry, there are separated and dedicated collectors.
Washed laundry is visually checked before being packed.
My 2 cents: he totally made that up either to make the buzz over the internet and/or to get a major compensation with United.
I heard these premium curated blankets all came from Delta where the only true premium products emanate from in the US
Is there feed for OMAAT readers to not have to see content about poop, or unruly passengers, or other shock-value posts that I usually associate with blogs like VFTW?
An adult vomited on my AA flight from LHR in Business class while waiting for the lavatory. The flight attendants 'cleaned' the floor using a business class blanket to scoop/aborb it up. Coffee grinds were sprinkled on the floor to reduce the smell.
