Woman Doing Her Nails Causes Flight To Be Diverted

<snip>

CHICAGO -- A woman doing her nails caused a United Airlines flight to be diverted on Saturday.

Authorities said United Flight 787 from Chicago to San Diego landed in Denver after the flight crew detected a funny odor. The FAA said several containers of the hazardous substance acetone were on board but added that none of them leaked.

Later, it was determined that the odor came from a passenger who was doing her nails on the flight. It was not immediately clear whether she was using nail polish or remover, but both contain acetone.

Nail polish is allowed on commercial flights. :eyes:

1. This just proves Betty Friedan's opinion that cosmetics are terroristic.

5. Richardo! You were on my mind this morning.

:hug: I haven't seen you in so long.

I can never put nail polish on without it looking like a 3 year old did it for me.

3. Maybe she was enroute to a wedding or special event

and wanted to look her best.

I've never done my nails but will admit to doing my makeup on a flight. I am careful not to crowd out anyone next to me.
