Two passengers were removed from an Air Canada flight after refusing to sit in seats that were reportedly covered in vomit. The incident occurred on a flight from Seattle to Montreal, and the passengers flagged down a flight attendant to express their concerns. Despite the flight attendants' apologies and explanation that there were no other available seats, the pilot gave the passengers an ultimatum: leave the plane voluntarily or be escorted off by security and placed on a no-fly list. Air Canada has acknowledged that their operating procedures were not followed correctly and is reviewing the matter internally.
