Narrative

ABOUT 30 MINS FROM LNDG; FLT ATTENDANT #4 AND MYSELF (FLT ATTENDANT #2); COACH CABIN; WERE NOT FEELING WELL. WE WERE DIZZY; HAD A HEADACHE; SORE THROAT; SINUS AND EAR PRESSURE. WE ASKED FLT ATTENDANTS #1 AND #3; AND THEY WERE NOT FEELING WELL EITHER. FLT ATTENDANT #1 CALLED THE COCKPIT AND ASKED IF THE PRESSURE WAS OK. ABOUT 5 SECONDS LATER; THE CAPT CALLED TO ASK IF WE COULD SMELL AN ACETONE ODOR IN THE CABIN. FLT ATTENDANT #3 SAID HE COULD; AROUND ROW 23. WE COULDN'T SMELL IT IN THE BACK BECAUSE WE WERE STUFFED UP. THE COCKPIT WAS GETTING WHIFFS OF ACETONE UP THERE. THE CAPT CALLED BACK RIGHT BEFORE LNDG TO TELL US THAT WE HAD BIO-HAZMAT IN CARGO AND THAT HE HAD DECLARED AN EMER. HE SAID TO BE PREPARED FOR ANYTHING. ON LNDG; WE WERE MET BY FIRE ENGS; BUT WE PROCEEDED TO THE GATE WITHOUT INCIDENT. FLT ATTENDANT AND GND SUPVR MET US AND FLT ATTENDANT #1 WAS REMOVED FROM THE TRIP. CARGO SUPVR CAME ON BOARD TO SEE EXACTLY WHAT HAD HAPPENED AND IF WE COULD STILL SMELL IT. WHEN CATERING CAME ON AND OPENED THE DOOR; WE IMMEDIATELY STARTED TO FEEL BETTER.
