Woman refuses to drug infant, thrown off Airplane

Post Reply New Topic

if it was me that was treated like that, i would have beaten that airplane personel up, nomatter the consequenses. i would propably get trown off the plane anyways, but at least for a reason i could understand. kids gotta have time to be kids. tolerance and general goodwill with your fellow man or woman is aperantly somthing this world lacks. all people gotta do is be nice to eachother. how hard can it be?

Of course whats to say Baby benadryl would have made the child quieter, my daughter had a reaction to some food and the doctor had us give her some and see certainly didn't get sleepy or or stop talking she talks almost constantly sometimes and this did not interrupt her at all in fact,she seemed more active actually.

Well, as much as I detest small children, I do feel sorry for the poor mother who had to lug her child and all the baby paraphernalia that goes along with having a rugrat around an airport for hours, and then get booted off her flight because her kid was noisy. For adults that are hyper-sensitive to the high pitch of children's voices, MP3 players with earbuds are a good defence. Wouldn't leave home without mine!
I mean., you can't in good conscience relegate parents with small children to the cargo hold; it's not pressurized!
Update: just Googled last statement; Cargo holds ARE pressurized, and heated, too. Hmmmm...

Typical cheap airlines though, they hire the crappiest staff who have absolutely no people skills and don't know the first thing about how to handle ADULTS complaining about the shoddy service they are receiving, let alone small children carrying on like small children. Doesn't matter whether it's Jet-star, easyjet or econojet or wtf, these attendants should consider themselves damn lucky to have a job in today's climate. Could be that they are suffering from John West syndrome, they are there because the better airlines wouldn't tolerate their sh*t. Also, being America, I'm surprised the airline isn't being sued, but those buggers would cover their arses that way too.

Customer service is virtually non-existent on airplanes unless you're in 1st class. It sucks when you pay around $600 for a flight (just to say for the point) and then a flight attendant or a customer service guy treats you like garbage or an airline doesn't let you on the flight if you're only 1 second late or something. Then that woman getting thrown off a plane because of her baby saying "bye-bye plane" a few times and asking the mom to drug her child...that would just make me so mad.

Hahaha. At first I thought they literally kicked the woman and her baby off the plane at 30,000 feet or something. That's what I would do to a baby, anyway. I hate those things.

GBOF: cargo holds are not heated; have you ever grabbed your luggage from a baggage carousel upon landing at an airport? I think they actual chill them rather than anything else.

Todd489: I'm sure the babies may feel the same about you, but unfortunately, the little buggers can't express their feelings like you can.

Yes, being irritating little infants proves how we can exist now, using this forum. If we'd just been planted here as adults, that would prove Ragtime right, and we wouldn't want that, would we?

Maybe if they drugged the rest of the people on the plane instead
