As for the media, it's already having a field day with this and this will make for more negative press for United.

Kudos to t the local affiliate for not putting “color” in the headline. I would never expect the nationals to follow suit.

She should of gone directly from the airport to a Starbucks. They encourage stinky people to hang out there.

At Starbucks, ALL Are Welcome. Except legal gun carriers. Smelly drug addled homeless transients are good to shoot up in the bathroom though.

Anything for a buck.

Thank you to Starbucks for keeping the paying customers safe.

If bad smell was an airline dealbreaker tsa would have to turn many away

At least one flight attendant thought she omitted a foul odor or else they would have never asked her off the flight after the original complaint.

She got another flight 5 hours later though. Did she de-stinkify in that time frame?

Didn't I read something similar about a Haitian woman whose privates were so strong smelling they had no choice but to ask her to leave? Not sure if this is about race, or just fake stories to keep the division amongst us.

I have read stuff about people who have allergies or issues with their endocrine system that have very strong odors.

I Had a coworker who smelled horrible by the end of day. She came in showered and clean. Eventually she was diagnosed with POS. I also watched a story on television about a woman with an allergy to a certain food that caused her to smell. It caused her a lot of strife in life. Only after figuring out the allergy could she resolve the issue with smell.

People do not want to sit near smelly people, that isn’t racism.

Something like that wouldn't even be necessary to smell pretty bad on an airplane on the second or third leg of a long international trip. I would start getting pungent myself travelling from Japan to the U.S. Fortunately, soap, washcloths, deodorant, and public restrooms with sinks and running water have been invented.
