Ya know how we kvetched the other day about the lack of meals on planes? It's okay. We're good. We take it all back and we'll happily sit with a rumbling stomach if it lessens our chances of being confronted with a mess of maggots while taxiing down the runway. Passenger Donna Adamo noticed a few flies onboard., but didn't give it any further consideration until taxi time, when she noticed a fellow traveler refusing to take a seat. Adamo tells ABC News that when she looked down at her clothes, "I thought it was a piece of lint but when I went to flick it off, it was squishy." She added, ""We were ordered to sit in our seats as maggots were dripping on us. It was only five to seven minutes but it felt like 30 minutes." The planeload of repulsed passengers was brought back to the terminal for rebooking on other flights. The container of spoiled meat was packed into an overhead bin by a passenger and unrelated to any in-flight service items. No word on if any maggots made their way onto the beverage cart, but we're hoping not as we can only imagine it was most strenuously utilized immediately thereafter. |

The little wiggly ones with the crunchy heads. Them's gooood eating!
Of course people will try to sue now. I like how they claim to be traumatized but still try to get attention or have time to blog/twitter/videotape it. Check out these two contradictory statements from another article on this story:
"Flight attendants tried to soothe passengers, but Adamo was too traumatized by the experience to calm down."
"Adamo was able to capture the stomach-turning experience on her cell-phone video camera, which shows a maggot slithering across a seat."
Traumatized, yet still able to videotape, broadcast, and distribute the incident after it occurred...
i am wondering why a passenger was allowed through security with a package of spoiled and maggot-infested meat?
Some might say "B
etter than the pretzels".
d'uh, it's most likely that the meat was not spoiled when brought onboard, but got spoiled AFTER being left in the overhead bin for a significant period of time (either intentionally or accidentally)
They should have called in Andrew Zimmerman to eat them..
LMAO!!
Ew.
