Toilet trouble forces jet to make unscheduled stop at Sea-Tac
American Airlines flight 278 lands at Sea-Tac Airport on Tuesday, June 12, 2012.
SEATAC, Wash. -- An unpleasant problem forced an American Airlines flight to make an unexpected landing at Sea-Tac airport early Tuesday.

Flight 278 from Anchorage to Dallas diverted to Sea-Tac because none of the bathrooms on board were working.

American Airlines spokeswoman Rhonda Rathje said the Boeing 757 landed safely about 1:30 a.m. and the passengers waited while crews fixed the toilets.

The plane continued on to Dallas just before 3 a.m.
