Airline Food Poisoning

Airline Food Poisoning

You can get food poisoning from airline food. Diarrhea and vomiting are the most commonly reported symptoms & norovirus is the most commonly reported diagnosis. The risk of bacteria can be greater with airline food due to the lag time between when the food is prepared and when it’s served.

Air India, Flight AI 415 from Delhi to Vishakhapatnam

1 month ago reported by user-gcrbf864

eat the lunch did not get sick. The two of us who ate the lunch got sick by the next day. The diarrhea got worst and worst, until the 22 February we had to go to urgency where we were placed an intravenous line. We were soon released that same day, but then my condition worsened, and the 24 February I started having strong fever, fainting, feeling very weak, vomiting and realizing that I hadn't urinated in 3 days. I would flush anything I drank in less than 10 minutes, and was severely dehydrated. I was quickly hospitalized and remained in bed with an intravenous line and antibiotics until the 28 February, when I was released still very weak and not feeling well. My return flight to Spain departed the 29. Until that moment, I could do no other thing than remain in my hotel room. Later analyses back in Spain confirmed an infection by Salmonella, Shigella and enteroinvasive Escherichia coli, and I have been prescribed more antibiotics. That sandwich ruined an entire trip and I will never trust plane food again.. It was very likely the lunch offered in flight AI 415, the 18 frebuary, from Delhi to Vishakhapatnam.
