Vaping flight passenger prompts pilot to threaten to 'turn this plane around'

An airline passenger traveling from Los Angeles to Cancun, Mexico, took to social media to share the way a flight crew handled a recent incident of a person vaping while on board.

Posted in the "r/AlaskaAirlines" Reddit forum, the post was titled, "Vaper on LAX-CUN Flight 4/18/25."

The user wrote, "So on Flight 1340 this morning, ‘a lady’ decided that (per the gossip I heard from a flight attendant) that she needed to vape a bit in the lav because ‘she was stressed out.'"
