Police reportedly met a Southwest Airlines flight as it landed at Chicago’s Midway Airport Saturday due to a passenger allegedly stripping naked and pooping on her seat during landing.
According to NBC New York, Southwest Airlines issued a statement that law enforcement and medical personnel met flight 418 from Philadelphia to Chicago’s Midway Airport upon arrival to address “a situation involving a customer.”
“Our Teams are reaching out to those onboard to apologize for the situation and any delays to their travel plans,” the airline said in a statement, according to the outlet.
“Nothing is more important to Southwest than the safety of our customers and employees, and we appreciate the professionalism of our flight crew,” it added.

From the New York Post:
It wasn’t clear what happened to the passenger.
The plane was taken out of service for cleaning, according to the report.
Last month, Southwest had a more serious mishap at Chicago Midway Airport, when a landing jet had a near-miss with a taxiing jet due possibly to a sun glare, according to the National Transportation Safety Board.

Per NBC New York:
The incident follows a series of flight-related troubles for airlines.
Most recently, a Southwest flight in Houston was evacuated due to an engine fire.
Southwest announced this month it will reduce its capacity later this year as it expects revenue to dip. The airline is also just one month away from shifting its long-held policies and charging passengers for checked baggage.
