“Anyone old enough to remember not being able to use the toilets while a train was in the station—and the reason why?”
The trains had no holding tank in those days. Just dumped it on the tracks...
It was in the back of the plane, in the galley, in line for the aft bathrooms. The stewardesses freaked-out!
Fluid Management!!
Don’t drink fluids before the flight = no-have-to-go!!
Odumbo calls that getting all wee-wee’d up!...
You just can’t make this crap up...
That was next.
For all you Freepers with a pee fetish!!
I ALWAYS go right before boarding as you just never can be sure of the availability of the restroom.
Planning ahead might have solved this woman’s problem.
The rain in Spain stays mainly on the plane.
Someone had to say that.
The wizz flushes right onto the tracks. Nobody wants to see that.
There is none. The fuel is pumped into the wings. I was a "ramp agent" for the airlines many years ago. The "ramp agent" job entailed handling luggage on and off the plane, fueling the aircraft, replenishing the water supply and emptying the "lavs" (as they were called) among other things.
So fueling the plane has zero to do with the toilets on board the aircraft. This is just another symptom of the heavily regulated society in which we live.
That said, how does one handle having to urinate and not having a proper place to go? Not that there's any excuse for having to go as soon as you get on the plane. Don't people have the common sense to use the terminal restroom before boarding the plane? I'm thinking this particular woman might have been spending time at the airport bar before boarding.
Ditto-- I'm on a plane for business nearly every week. its not the 'traveling' part its the 'process' of it. Airports, TSA, crowded planes, loud or moron passengers or crew, shuttle buses, traffic, rushing to make flights, delays or cancellations, bumpy weather in the sky... blech.. Staying home and grilling out back are simple pleasures to be appreciated more.
Just like in Europe back in 1986 when I was over there. The wizz flushed right onto the tracks. My dad (R.I.P.) was using a train bathroom to take a wizz over there, and when he flushed, some disturbance of air under the train caused the stuff to fly right out of the toilet onto him. He spent awhile washing and toweling himself off before returning to his seat.
Methane, for the win.
Of course, throw in some other factors, actual concentration of the methane. One bowel's worth of methane in a small compartment mixed with a couple of cubic feet of air, of which only ~20% is O2, compared to a steady supply of potentially evaporating kerosene out in the open...
Killer Kowalski and another wrestler were on a puddle jumper that also carried mail.
The other wrestler had to go really bad, so he used an empty mail bag.
Kowalski said the stench was overpowering, bringing tears to his eyes that the other wrestler couldn't otherwise do in the ring.
I fly frequently. The last thing I do before I get on a plane is use the restroom by the gate. I hate plane bathrooms. I’m always amazed that as soon as I get set down people are lining up for the bathrooms. Then as soon as the seatbelt sign goes off they start again. It’s like when I used to take my daughter somewhere and she always had to use the restroom in every place we went.
I really try to avoid public bathrooms as much as I can.
I’m curious as to her name. Is she a “poor downtrodden reugee”? She seems to speak fair english, going by the quotes they gave of her. I guess Merrye Olde England has their nutases, too. Why didn’t she wizz before boarding? Why did the airline board before refueling? Is this truly a “Polish” airline?

Wizz Air is ‘low-cost’ Hungarian. Since the young woman was arrested, her name will probably become known. Her English is fluent enough to be a native speaker.
Did she say, "My hovercraft is full of eels"?
Well, she was translating from Zulu...
