American Airlines passengers react as cabin flooded with ‘disgusting’ liquid during flight

Passengers on an American Airlines flight from Dallas, Texas, to Minneapolis, Minnesota got an unexpected surprise when a water leak from the toilet reached the cabin aisle.

One passenger, Hilary Stewart Blazevic, told Storyful that a woman was using the restroom before the leak and did not notify the crew of any problems.

According to a video shot by Blazevic, flight attendants rushed to the scene and tried to stop the leak.
