A couple was kicked off a flight due to “bad body odour” and filed a federal complaint against American Airlines, claiming religious and racial discrimination.

Yehuda Yosef Adler and Jennie Adler described their “unbearable humiliation, embarrassment, and mental and emotional anguish” in the legal lawsuit they filed. As a result of their “bad body odour,” the family was informed they couldn’t board the aircraft, according to Yossi.

According to reports, passengers had complained that they smelt awful. The family was kicked off the aeroplane, according to Yossi, a 36-year-old business consultant, who believes they did not smell. Yossi further alleges this is because they are Jewish.

After they removed us, they abruptly shut the gate and announced, “Sorry sir, some people complained you had body odour and we’re not letting you back on.” The family claims that once they were removed from the aircraft, they were promised that their luggage would be given to them, but that didn’t happen and they were left with little more than the clothing on their backs.

Orthodox Jews the couple and their daughter were sitting when a gate attendant allegedly said to Yehuda Yosef Adler: “Sir, there’s an emergency and you must deplane,” according to the lawsuit.

American Airlines released the following statement: “Mr. Adler and his wife were removed from the flight after many customers complained about the odour of their bodies. In addition to receiving meal vouchers, they get a hotel reservation for the night. The legal action taken by the Adler family doesn’t appear to have progressed since 2020.
