A Reddit user, u/Glamgalatx, who was on board, described the man as agitated and offensive. After intentionally releasing a loud fart, he berated fellow passengers for their food choices, eventually leading to a verbal exchange.

The crew then decided to remove the disruptive passenger, much to the relief of everyone on board. The flight faced a minor delay of 15-30 minutes.

Social media users have since reacted humorously to the event, dubbing the man 'fartman' and expressing amusement at the situation.
