Delta sued over broken teeth after in-flight snack
Delta Air Lines has been hit with a lawsuit after a passenger’s in-flight snack allegedly resulted in thousands of dollars’ worth of expensive dental work.
The woman ordered pita bread with eggplant dipping sauce on a LA-bound flight two years ago and claims there was a pebble in the sauce.
After taking a bite her front teeth were destroyed by the pebble, exposing a nerve, TMZ reports.
That caused her to shriek in pain.
She then claimed flight attendants came to her aid and later offered her $80 worth of airline miles.
The lawsuit is claiming $9,999.99 for ‘complex dental restoration’ over the course of two years.
Delta has made no official response yet to the lawsuit.
