Delta Airlines, based in Atlanta, GA has had a 'Crappy' week. Just 4 days ago several passengers were injured after a Delta jet encountered turbulance sending 4 pax to the hospital. And yesterday a passenger lost control of their bowels while attempting to reach the lavatory on-board an Airbus 350 (A350) which had just departed ATL on it's way to Madrid Spain. The crew made the decision to divert the flight back to Atlanta on the grounds of a bio-hazard concern. The aircraft was cleaned and finally departed several hours later for Spain.
