New details have emerged of what could have been a serious “fume event” onboard a British Airways aircraft flying from San Francisco to London Heathrow on the 24th October 2016. The Airbus A380 superjumbo, carrying 388 passengers and 25 crew, was forced to divert and make an unscheduled landing due to a medical emergency after a “strong obnoxious smell” entered the passenger cabin.
“The airline industry needs to face up to it.”
“Toxic cabin air is real and is damaging lives. The airline industry needs to face up to its responsibilities and deal with it,” commented Unite’s assistant general secretary for legal services Howard Beckett. (source)
