This Technicality Got Family With Infant Kicked Off Overbooked Delta Flight

A California father's outrage is on full view as he's told his entire family is to be booted from an overbooked Delta flight. A flight attendant actually told the Orange County couple that their kids could be taken away if they didn't surrender their seats. "You'll be committing a federal offense," the attendant said in cell phone video of the incident. "You and your wife will be in jail and your kids will be put in foster care." It happened aboard a flight from Hawaii to Los Angeles last month. #InsideEdition

That woman needs to get fired for talking to them that way.

*Moral of the story:*

Don't fly with Delta no matter what

[heavypen]

I remember this story. Back then, we were planning a trip to Hawaii. Our kids weren't infants, but THIS story convinced us not to fly Delta. We never flew Delta for any of our family vacations. The gall of that flight attendant to threaten the family like that. Unbelievable.

This is the RUDEST FLIGHT ATTENDANT I've ever seen! She literally makes a whole family with infants go off the plane because of FOUR OTHER PASSGENGERS?! She shouldn't even be a flight attendant after threatening them to ''Get off the plane or else we will both put you in jail and take your children to a foster home!'' Like what the hell ask somebody else to leave their seat. This is the worst flight attendant I've ever seen.

I don't understand USA, if I bought a ticket its mine period. It's not rocket science.

screaming 8 hour kid: "nah he's good"

This man is father of the year! How he kept his cool is unbelievable. I dont think i could have handled that situation that good.

[belindahocking]

I swear this flight attendant is trying to go on a power trip threatening to take they kids away and put them in jail good for the dad for standing up to this corrupt person

[rainyday]

If it wasn’t recorded they wouldn’t have apologized

[Dragoneen]

"You and your wife will be in jail". Woman, you better watch yourself before you end up in jail.

[tracyokuno]

Flight attendant that threatened jail and foster care should be fired!

[petriko_]

How can be this allowed?? They got paid twice for a seat, and kick one passenger off the plane, additionally threaten jail 🤦

[jqueen]

The “Kids in foster care” comment was totally unnecessary and inappropriate. Why would she say something like that?

[camalex]

Airlines shouldn’t be allowed to overbook flights

[sennataylor]

Flight attendant needs to have her name and face exposed. What disgusting behavior.

[BalletStrong-clcb]

That father handled the entire situation perfectly.

[shard]

Moral of the story? Just dont fly delta.

[clunkonester]

They literally paid for their seats and now they must sleep at the airport, and they even threatened to take their kids away if they don't give what the paid for, lmao its like a robbery

[solidmoon]

Absolutely disgusting behaviour by the airline.

[cayleweldon]

How dare you threaten them with jail and taking their kids. That’s exactly how you push a man into a corner to protect his family. Absoloutely disgusting
