A 200kgs passenger forced flight attendants to strip him in a toilet and wipe his backside as he allegedly 'moaned with pleasure' during a long-haul flight.

The flight attendant said the large customer, who is thought to be American, made her and her colleagues undress him in a lavatory and clean his rear, asking staff to go 'deeper', during the trip from the United States to Taiwan.

The incident took place during on a flight from Los Angeles to Taiwan's Taoyuan airport on Saturday, with the passenger - a Caucasian male - yet to be named.

The stewardess, named only as her last name of Kuo, who was also Chief Purser on the flight, said in a press conference that her crew helped to pull down the passenger's pants and wipe his backside after he finished relieving himself.

However, the flight attendants' discomfort then turned to humiliation when he allegedly began moaning in apparent pleasure as the chief attendant wiped his backside while wearing three pairs of latex gloves.

Kuo, who was holding onto the passenger to keep in steady, recalled: 'He said:

Oh, mmm, deeper, deeper," and then accused my chief attendant of not properly cleaning his backside, requesting that she do it again.'

Kuo said the attendant repeated the action three times before leaving, at which point the passenger said:

You can pull my pants back up now.

EVA Air, which only employees female cabin crew, has said in a statement its staff are not obliged to accept demands from passengers - even those requiring special assistance.

However, the Taoyuan Flight Attendants Union, which is representing Kuo and her colleagues, argue that the problem is systemic, stemming from a service industry culture that frowns upon those who do not meet the customer's every demand.

The union has suggested two solutions: ban the passenger and others like him, and begin hiring male cabin staff.

Further statements from the airlines and the union are expected in the coming days.
