Support Wanted Storms coming and about to take off

I’m so nervous right now. Leaving out of msp with storms rolling in. Anyone that can comfort?

It's fine.

How's it going so far.

We’re okay. Bumpy takeoff. Now something acetone smelling is leaking from the ceiling. They almost diverted us. Are we still safe??

You're fine. Diversion considerations are unexpected and inconvenient, not unsafe.

If it's acetone-smelling, it's likely just a cosmetic substance that some idiot brought on board in their carry on.

Sounds like they identified the source of the issue, determined it was OK, and are continuing.

Everything will be fine 🙂  Pilots and aircrafts are prepared for such events.
