A Times investigation found that vapors from oil and other fluids seep into planes with alarming frequency across all airlines, at times creating chaos and confusion.
I was on a plane one time and when they backed up from the terminal we could really smell the exhaust fumes being sucked into the cabin, thinking it was a malfunction. The crew told us that happens regularly and said it was worse in winter with the deicers. It went away before we took off.
