A 6-year-old boy enroute to meeting his grandmother was put on a wrong flight by the Spirit Airline crew. The boy, a first-time flier, was slated to meet his grandmom in Florida.
Speaking to WINK-TV, the grandmother said, “I ran inside the plane to the flight attendant and I asked her, ‘Where’s my grandson? He was handed over to you at Philadelphia?’ She said, ‘No, I had no kids with me.’”
She also expressed anger at the lack of information from the airline. “I want them to call me [and] let me know how my grandson ended up in Orlando,” she noted, adding, “How did that happen? Did they get him off the plane? The flight attendant — after mom handed him with paperwork — did she let him go by himself? He jumped in the wrong plane by himself?”
