On my 10 1/2-hour international flight, I got stuck behind a man who dealt silent-but-deadly farts at regular intervals. It was about every fifteen or twenty minutes. I could almost set my watch on it. What’s more, he would look around before, during and after each one. My entire row was a little bit green around the gills by the time the flight was over.
It was like a very gross version of those air fresheners that you can set to spray every few minutes.

I think that guy could do a gig at one of our national parks imitating a geiser!
the case of farticus erupticus is quite natural holding it in on that length of flight is unreasonable and potentially damaging to the person attempting to do so further more, the person likely was digesting beans, vegetables and/or fruit, all of which are essential for health
I say if you are goijng tp bust ass, be proud and lay claim to it, do not be ashamed of your talent
So, uh, what about global warming
How about all the Women that put on so much perfume they reek of it? I don't know why they have to soak in the entire bottle and then you have to sit by them smelling it the entire flight.
who ever smelt it, dealt it. so i find you, the OP, guilty!
Was that on Tokyo to Minn/St. Paul? It might have been me doing the dealing. Bwahahahahaha
Seriously though, sometimes you gotta let 'em rip, or else you'd be hitting the bathroom every fifteen minutes.
Now theres a market niche to exploit in this depressed economy! Become an in-flight fart-huffer. Its the next best thing to legalizing drugs. Develop a reality show in which you pinpoint foreign cultures via blindly smelling global villagers' flatulence.
I have flown many times from the middle east back home to the US. The food and water in *&^%istan is enough to cause most people problems. Many times, I swear I could have inflated the life jacket through the seat, probably sounded like I was doing duck calls in the Grand Canyon.
Take some "Beano" when you fly.
Farting is natural, but when you know you're having a problem like that GO TO THE BATHROOM!
LOL. sorry i cant help laughing. but i know exactly what you mean. enzmye pills should help with bloating..although as loud as the airplane is, the person next to me made a loud fart in their sleep. i tried refrain from laughing, but couldnt help it. the good thing the person was still sleeping or pretending to be
I wish I could do that.
If flatulence is rotten smelling, it's usually an indication that it is time to hit the bathroom. Pretty nasty of him not to take care of it.
