Commuter flights today are not always short, and if it was smooth at the time and he expected the lav to be operative than I see no reason he should not have been able to go. I myself have made announcements at the gate that because of weather or turbulence the seatbelt sigh may remain illuminated for much of the flight. If the passengers were so warned then I can see how the crew could be bothered. But there was no mention that the passengers knew that the aircraft facilities were inop.In fact he used it before the plane took-off. The captain inoped it because of a '"'Light". I don’t see how everyone expect the passenger to be responsible for the airlines inability to maintain proper maintenance of their aircraft. And what if there were a child on board, should he/she be expected to 'hold it'?
