Can airlines ban a passenger who stinks?:

A corporate lawyer who had to de-plane in Los Angeles because his stinky shirt aroused passenger complaints has lost a lawsuit seeking compensation from British Airways. The man and his wife were asked to leave the plane by a stewardess following passenger's complaints. "The stewardess took him to one side and asked if could put on a fresh shirt, but they were all in the hold," reported Reuters. The attorney missed a connecting flight to Germany and had to spend the night in Los Angeles. The passenger's unsuccessful suit asked for $2,800 for lost earnings, vacation time and the cost of staying in the city.
