CHAOS erupted on an easyJet plane after a passenger “defecated” on the floor – cancelling the flight and leaving holidaymakers stranded.
Footage has shown toilet paper strewn across the walkway of a plane that had been scheduled to fly from Tenerife to London Gatwick on Sunday night.

Another video taken by a passenger captured the captain informing holidaymakers the flight was having to be cancelled and rescheduled for the following morning.
Furious passengers on the EZY8054 flight had already faced several hours of delays on Sunday night, MailOnline reports.
And they faced further misery when they were told easyJet had been unable to find rooms in the area – leaving many scratching around trying to find their own accommodation for the night.
Passengers are understood to have initially been moved onto a different, smaller aircraft, with customers offered a £500 voucher to leave the flight.
But after no one accepted the offer, holidaymakers endured further delays as staff removed luggage onto alternative flights heading to Gatwick.
Customers were expected to fly home at 3pm on Monday instead.
Furious passengers took to social media to vent their anger at the ordeal.
One said: “Real good of easyJet to delay the flight 3.5 hours with 0 communication then decide to cancel it altogether because someone took a s*** on the toilet floor.
“Quite literally couldn’t make this s*** up.”
A second complained: “So we’ve been given the excuse of a toilet being defecated in for the reason for a CANCELLED flight?!”
A spokesperson for easyJet said: “easyJet can confirm that flight EZY8054 from Tenerife to London Gatwick yesterday evening was delayed overnight due to the aircraft requiring additional cleaning.
“We did all possible to minimise the impact of the disruption for our customers, providing hotel accommodation and meals and the flight is due to depart this afternoon.
“The safety and wellbeing of our customers and crew is easyJet’s highest priority and while this was outside of our control, we would like to apologise to customers for the inconvenience caused.”
It comes after a plane was forced to make an emergency landing last month after a passenger’s extreme diarrhoea was deemed a “biohazard”.
A passenger on the flight revealed the vanilla disinfectant made the smell even worse before staff were forced to rip up the whole carpet.
