A passenger recorded the trail of feces that was left after a person had a bout of explosive diarrhea on a rerouted Delta Air Lines flight, and it's now making the rounds on social media.
Delta Air Lines flight 194 was traveling from Atlanta to Spain on Friday when it was forced to turn around after a passenger had diarrhea in the plane's cabin.
Xansby Swanson said in a post on X, formerly Twitter, on Saturday that his brother was aboard the Delta flight.
"Lil bro headed abroad rn but his plane had to go back to ATL an hour into the flight bc someone shit up and down the aisle," Swanson wrote in his post.
Swanson subsequently posted a video of his brother's flight on X yesterday. In the video, a trail of brown can be seen flowing down the plane's aisle. Stained and soggy paper towels were also strewn across the floor. Insider was not able to independently confirm the passenger's flight details.
An aviation enthusiast earlier shared an audio transmission between the pilots and air-traffic control on X on Sunday. This X post added that the audio had been taken from audio posted to LiveATC.com.
"This is a biohazard issue. We've had a passenger who's had diarrhea all the way through the airplane, so they want us to come back to Atlanta," a pilot can be heard speaking in the audio transmission.
A representative for Delta Air Lines previously told Insider that the plane had to be rerouted to Atlanta for cleaning due to a "medical issue" on board.
"Our teams worked as quickly and safely as possible to thoroughly clean the airplane and get our customers to their final destination," the Delta representative said. "We sincerely apologize to our customers for the delay and inconvenience to their travel plans."
Representatives for Delta Air Lines and Jackson did not immediately respond to requests for comment from Insider sent outside regular business hours.
