Source: Fox...Sorry

DAYTON, Ohio -- An Ohio airport official says an American Airlines flight was diverted to Dayton's airport after about a half dozen people on board complained of illness.

The director of Dayton International Airport says the pilot alerted the airport Friday morning that some passengers were complaining about air quality.

Director Terrence Slaybaugh says Flight 547 was traveling from Reagan National in Washington, D.C., to Chicago's O'Hare Airport.

Slaybaugh says one passenger had an asthma attack. That passenger and two others were taken to a hospital for treatment. He did not know their conditions.

3. Some woman was polishing her nails on a flight I was on recently...
The fumes made people sick but she kept right on with it even though she was told to stop.

4. The nail polish should be banned from aircraft!
...it shouldn't be allowed. The smell is horrible.

Am plane was old, filthy, were understaffed. AkAir plane had decent headrests, clean, plenty of staff.
