The Associated Press is reporting that Continental Airlines is apologizing to passengers who endured a two-day trans-Atlantic odyssey on a jet with sewage overflowing from its lavatories.



Passenger Collin Brock was cited as telling Seattle television station KING that sewage flowed into the aisles, only one restroom was partially working, and flight attendants kept serving meals but told passengers not to eat much, and that it was the worst flight of his life, adding, "I was forced to sit next to human excrement for seven hours … it's a nauseating smell."

A Continental spokesman was quoted as saying in a statement that, "We deeply regret the serious inconvenience to our customers and are apologizing to them and compensating them for the poor conditions on the flight as well as the diversion and delay. "
