AirTran customer left to stew in someone else's piss

Apparently, some of the flight crew on AirTran think that when you pay for a seat, you should be thankful for getting a seat, regardless of the state it's in:

A Winchendon woman said an airline did not help her after she sat in a urine-soaked seat on a West Palm Beach, Fla., to Boston flight on Sunday night.

"I was sitting maybe 30 seconds to minute and realized that my pants were soaked," Jennifer Castellano said.
[...]
"A flight attendant told me that on the previous flight a man had urinated on himself in that particular seat. And I said, 'I'm not sitting on a three hours flight soaked in someone else's urine. That is absolutely disgusting,'" Castellano said.

BA hide lost bags behind Bin Laden

It being summer, BA is having a mini-crisis: this time it's a massive backlog of baggage. BA say it's down to, ooh, terror alerts; the unions say it's understaffing.

I wonder which could be the real reason: oddly, no other airline has been reporting baggage difficulties, and yet all were affected by the idiocy alerts. And BA does have quite a bit of form for this sort of thing. I wonder.
