- Passengers on flights from Newark Liberty International Airport to India are complaining about bed bug infested seats.

In one case this week a family complained their infant was covered in bites and bleeding by the time the 17-hour flight landed in Mumbia.

Pravin Tonsekar tweeted Air India photos of his seat with apparent bed bugs on them.

Air India replied with a comment that it is: "sorry to hear this. Sharing the details with our maintenance team for corrective measures in this regard."

Another passenger tweeted to the airline that his family few out of Newark on July 18 and his wife and three children were covered in bed ug bites all over their body. He asked, "Is this what we paid $10,000 for???"

So.... NYC is the source, not India?

So now one more reason to be afraid of flying in these human sewer machine tubes.

I think the airlines don’t want us to know this.

Several years ago I boarded a Pan Am flight at JFK that had arrived from India. The stench was almost unbearable.

India manufactures and uses DDT.

Expect that they will dust the plane and put it back in service.

I’ll assume the Plane had the Bedbug Infestation upon ARRIVING from India earlier in the day.

The Passengers affected were flying TO India.

With all the turd-world passengers flying on airlines, it’s surprising this problem isn’t more common.

LOL! I saw Wright live at the Ding Ho in 1981, I think. He was great.
