Cleaning crews reportedly traced the source of the overflow to a ladies’ restroom in C concourse, near Gate C5. According to airport officials, someone had stuffed or tried to flush paper towels down the toilet, which caused the drainage system to back up and overflow.
Eventually, the water began dripping down onto the a baggage-handling room, where the 200 bags were "potentially affected,” the Southwest spokesperson confirmed.
The airline also said the bags were cleaned, and in some cases replaced.
I bet this ranks above delayed flights on pax complaint lists.
