A British Airways passenger has spoken out about the ‘disgusting’ moment he realised his business class seat was drenched in urine.
A British Airways passenger claims his dream holiday to Jamaica was ruined when he sat down in his business class seat to find it was soaked in urine.
Andy Vicary, 52, was excited to settle down beside his wife in the business class cabin with a glass of champagne for his 10-hour flight to Kingston, Jamaica.
He said: “We were on board the plane and made our way to our seats and so I sat down with a glass of Champagne and thought ‘this is brilliant’.
“Then I noticed that the pillow that I was sat on was a little damp and I stood up and then so were my trousers.
“I turned the pillow over and you could see that the pillow and the entire seat was saturated in urine.
“I had to move seats and I was not able to sit with my wife for the flight which was really disappointing as well.
“The cabin crew put my trousers in a plastic bag, but I was not able to wash them on holiday as there are no clothes washing facilities, so when I got back I just had to throw them in the bin.”
As an apology, British Airways gave Mr Vicary 40,000 air miles.
He is now planning on taking the airline to court, saying the incident wrecked his £5,000 vacation.
In a statement, British Airways said: “We apologised to Mr Vicary, moved him to another seat and offered him and his wife enough Avios for an upgrade to business class the next time they fly with us.”
