Allergic Passenger Spends $185 to Buy Out All Peanuts on Flight

A passenger with a severe nut allergy spent $185 on 48 packs of peanuts on a Eurowings flight to prevent anyone from opening them. Leah Williams, who is prone to anaphylactic shock, had requested an announcement about her allergy, but the cabin crew refused, citing airline policy. Frustrated, Williams bought all the packs of peanuts on board. Eurowings does not clarify whether peanuts are a typical snack offering on its flights and states that it cannot guarantee an allergen-free environment. Williams has complained to the airline and seeks a refund, hoping to prompt a change in their policy.
