TikTok user @meghanreinertsen’s experience travelling with United Airlines was far from pleasant, but it had nothing to do with the airline itself. On her TikTok account on July 7, 2025, Meghan shared a video suggesting she might have contributed to the cancellation of a United Airlines flight from Indianapolis.
Meghan then explained how it happened, saying she first noticed signs of a “disturbance” deep within her bowels during her second connecting flight between Portugal and Indianapolis. This flight was from Lisbon to Newark. She revealed that the incident occurred when her flight was about 30 minutes from Newark. Despite noticing these signs, Meghan was unable to reach the toilet in time, but when she boarded her next flight, everything changed. She felt a strong urge to poop and, when she finally visited the bathroom, she couldn’t leave for two hours and had to seek assistance from flight attendants.
