'The vanilla scented disinfectant used on it only made it smell like vanilla s***. After the plane landed, it was thoroughly cleaned. They didn't leave until around 2:30am', wrote Dee W.
'The flight was met by emergency vehicles and EMTs carried the sick passenger off the plane.
'My partner said the plane was cleaner when they got back on at 2am than it was the first time they got on. No smell either.'
Another passenger onboard the Airbus A350 aircraft also praised the cleanup operation.
'Both my wife and I were on the flight. It was a mess. The pilots made the right decision to turn around. The ground crew ripped out the carpet and put new in.
