Interesting dilemma. United has liability either way. If she were allowed to go to the bathroom and the plane had hit turbulence severe enough to injure her, they would be liable a similar amount no doubt.

Why is she complaining? She got a standing ovation and a Hoozah! over the intercom from the pilot.
United passenger: Attendants forced me to pee in a cup at my sea
A Kansas City nurse says she was forced to urinate into a plastic a cup at her seat on a United flight after attendants barred her from using the plane's lavatory.
Nicole Harper shared the humiliating story — which occurred April 9, the same day that 69-year-old David Dao was injured while being dragged off a United flight — in a Facebook post Saturday.
Harper said attendants would not let her go to the bathroom because the captain had turned on the seat belt sign around the midpoint of her flight.
"After explaining that I have an overactive bladder and would either need to use the restroom or pee in a cup, I was handed a cup by flight attendants," she wrote.
But relieving herself while in her seat wasn't even the worst part of the incident, she says.
After she was done — and with the seat belt light now off — she and her filled cup were escorted to the lavatory by attendants, who "treated me like I had committed a crime."
According to Harper, they said they would be calling in a hazmat team to clean the entire row (despite the fact that there was no spillage, she says) and that she would have to speak with the pilot.
