[Mr. Silverback]

I've never seen or heard of a family being booted off a flight because of a crying child. I suspect this was a doozy.

I've never seen or heard of a family being booted off a flight because of a crying child. I suspect this was a doozy.

From these news accounts that I have read of this incident it appears to have been quite the scene. One account I read indicated that the pilot had already held the flight 15 minutes because of this child. And as someone pointed out on this thread delays of 15 minutes or (more in this case), can cause people to miss flight connections, etc.
