Hold it in: Passengers on the British Airways flight were told to stop
consuming liquid

Passengers on a British Airways flight from Heathrow to the Cayman Islands
were told not to drink for two hours because none of the plane's toilets
were working. The 169 passengers and nine crew aboard the Boeing 767 to
Grand Cayman via Nassau last Wednesday had been forced to share two
toilets - including one in the exclusive Club World cabin - for most of the
12-hour flight after four others were closed owing to blockages.

One passenger who was travelling with his family, said: 'Two-and-a-half
hours away from Nassau the Club World toilet also became blocked, and the
only working toilet on the flight was right next to us. Shortly afterwards
this also blocked.'It was at this point the pilot asked everyone to stop
drinking so that they could hold out until the plane landed in Nassau.

British Airways said the toilets blocked because they had not been serviced
at Heathrow, where the tanks should have been emptied. The tanks were
finally emptied at Nassau.

British Airways apologised to passengers. A spokesman said: 'If we had known
of the situation we would not have taken off.'
