Exactly what happened.
Not that there’s ever a reason for diverting a flight that makes you feel good as a passenger.
But an overheating toilet? That’s just unfortunate.
That’s exactly what happened to 350 passengers in the wee hours this morning on a Miami to London Virgin Atlantic Flight.

Riptide is fighting the urge to end this entry with yet another scatalogical reference. Must … not .. give in … Eh, let’s just say it was a shitty flight and be done with it. Goodnight folks!
