An Air Canada passenger claimed two of her fellow travelers were booted off the plane after refusing to sit in vomit-covered seats for a five-hour flight.<\/p>\n
Susan Benson wrote on Facebook that three other passengers found their seats on the Las Vegas to Montreal flight were wet and showed clear traces of vomit.<\/p>\n
A flight attendant explained an earlier passenger on the previous flight had been sick and staff tried as best as they could to clean up to allow other customers to sit.<\/p>\n
Benson wrote: “There was a bit of a foul smell but we didn\u2019t know at first what the problem was. Apparently, on the previous flight, someone had vomited in that area.”<\/p>\n
She noted Air Canada staff had tried to cover the foul smell with perfume and coffee grinds but with little results.<\/p>\n

Two of the passengers were ultimately escorted off the flight.<\/p>\n She added: “I cannot stop thinking about these two ladies. They did nothing wrong. I am ashamed to be a Canadian and ashamed of Air Canada.”<\/p>\n Air Canada said they are currently investigating the incident: “We are reviewing this serious matter internally and have followed up with the customers directly as our operating procedures were not followed correctly in this instance.<\/p>\n “This includes apologizing to these customers, as they clearly did not receive the standard of care to which they were entitled, and addressing their concerns.”<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/78\/590x\/secondary\/4944991.jpg?r=1693939797713\")
