A pair of raging holidaymakers have claimed they were forced to sit next to a “snoring, farting” dog for the entirety of a 13-hour flight.

Gill and Warren Press are now demanding a refund from Singapore Airlines after the stinky pooch made their long haul journey a nightmare.

The married couple, who were travelling from Europe to New Zealand and were on the first leg from Paris to Singapore, had paid extra to fly premium economy, hoping it would make their flight more comfortable.

But unfortunately for them, they were seated next to an emotional support dog with a flagrant disregard for flight etiquette.

Gill said: “I heard this noise – a heavy snorting. I thought it was my husband’s phone, but we looked down and realised it was the dog breathing. I said, ‘I’m not having this sitting next to us the whole trip’.”

She added: “They couldn’t have the dog out in the aisle because they couldn’t get the trolleys through, so it had to come in further, which meant his head was under my husband’s feet. My husband was in shorts, and was getting the dog’s saliva goo on his leg.”

She said once more to a flight attendant that they should be moved, but the crew simply offered her the front of economy class where the crew were sitting. As they had paid for premium seating they didn’t want this.

The couple again asked to be moved but were informed that they could only be put back into economy class. They didn’t want this either, so refused.

But she claimed the dog wouldn’t stop “farting” throughout the flight, making their journey a pongy ordeal.

Gill and Warren said they were told by staff that the incident would be noted on record. However, they heard nothing, allegedly, until they complained officially a week later.

The duo said they were offered £95 each in travel vouchers three weeks after their flight from hell. But, this didn’t satisfy the pair. They said they were dead set on getting a full refund on their flight.

The duo apparently have not “received the experience we [they] paid for”.

Singapore Airlines told The Independent: “Singapore Airlines endeavours to notify customers who may be seated next to an assistance dog prior to boarding the flight. We sincerely apologise that this did not occur in this case, and will work with our airport teams to ensure that this lapse does not occur in future.”

It’s not the first time an animal has caused havoc on a flight. In June, a TikTok poster – Madison Flores @diet.bean – shared a 13-second clip that gained over 9million views. In the video, a one-eyed ginger cat can be seen exploring the plane’s galley. The cute little cat slinks around on the floor sniffing at various trolleys and drawers before lying back down to relax in its newfound spot.

The cat did have a collar on, but many commenters questioned how a cat got onto the plane. Especially as it doesn’t have thumbs to hold a boarding pass!

Not visible on the camera, a member of the flight crew can be overheard asking passengers to check if “your cat is not in your bag”. Some airlines do allow pets to travel with their owners in the main cabin so long as they are kept in a carrier.

Thankfully, the owner was identified as they realised their kitty has snuck out of their bag.
