Currently on a long-haul flight and experiencing a serious issue with strong body odor from nearby passengers seated in adjacent rows. The smell is extremely unpleasant and persistent, making the experience uncomfortable for those seated nearby.
I attempted to raise the concern with a flight attendant, but the response was limited and no immediate action was taken.
Given the duration of the flight (~10 hours), I’m looking for advice on:
Whether there are any appropriate ways to escalate such situations during a flight
How cabin crew typically handle hygiene-related passenger discomfort issues
What realistic options exist in-flight (seat change, mitigation, etc.)
I understand cultural and situational factors may vary, but this is significantly impacting the passenger experience.
