They did what?<\/p>\n

Two of the most irritating things that can happen on a flight are bad turbulence and crying babies \u2014 both out of anyone\u2019s control. Unfortunately, one couple was kicked off a recent flight<\/a> for having the latter.<\/p>\n

On an Allegiant Air return flight from Punta Gorda, Florida, to Indianapolis, Sydney and Kyle Tash\u2019s baby girl, Ellie, was fussy and crying for a few minutes before being approached by an Allegiant Air worker.<\/p>\n

While the family of three didn\u2019t have any issues getting through security and to their gate at the airport, once the trio was seated on the plane, they were reportedly asked to show their boarding pass and were asked detailed questions about their baby, like her name and birthdate.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026They called her an unidentified infant over the walkie [talkie]. Then they told us a flight attendant reported us for a baby being feverish [because her face was red from crying] \u2026 said medical professionals wouldn\u2019t clear her to fly and that we were going to have to get off,\u201d the mom of the infant explained in the caption of a TikTok video<\/a> about their situation with four million views. <\/p>\n

@Allegiant Air We were unable to fly back home to Indiana with Allegiant on Friday 3\/27 at 9pm due to a baby being naturally pale and red in the face from crying on a plane. First they didn\u2019t believe our babies birth certificate from Indiana at check in and they had several people look at it. We went through TSA just fine no issues. We boarded our flight like normal. Before boarding we took off babies shirt because she was hot on the flight from Indy to Florida we figured she\u2019d probably be sweaty then too. She had also just ate baby food. Anybody with a child knows they are messy. They removed the gentleman in the aisle seat told him there was a seat up front away from kids. The whole two rows we were in were full of children and their parents. Someone in a vest came onto the plane and ask for our boarding pass again. I handed it over. They then asked me how old the baby was, her name, her birthdate and went back by the bathrooms and kept talking into the phone and walkie talkie. They called her an unidentified infant over the walkie. Then they told us a flight attendant reported us for a baby being feverish\u2026 said medical professionals wouldn\u2019t clear her to tly and that we were going to have to get off. Nobody would come and see her. Nobody on the flight was required to have a temperature checked. Nobody would even come and take her temperature. They said well she looks red and it looks like a rash. Several other babies were on the flight and also crying. We were told to get off the flight or police would take us off of it even though we weren\u2019t arguing or cussing. As we walked off we asked again why are we getting kicked off the plane and they stated we weren\u2019t getting kicked off. I asked to speak to a supervisor. I told the lady I\u2019m not mad at you I\u2019m mad at the situation. Im not complaining about you specifically. A supervisor wouldn\u2019t come and talk to us in person only on a phone. We got on the next flight they had which was 11am the next day. No accommodations, no car to get around, no place to stay other than to call family back to grab us from the airport again. We were so lucky we hadn\u2019t been just in town by ourselves. We waited an hour for them to drive back and grab us. We have no luggage as they wouldn\u2019t grab it off the plane. No car seat or stroller for the baby. They gave us an unclaimed car seat that has no padding and isn\u2019t age appropriate. Car seat was way too big had to hold her head the whole ride back to Kyle\u2019s grandparents house because it was too big. We missed work the next day, had to get our pet sitter to stay another day, didn\u2019t get to pick up our two other kids that were at dads for spring break and missed our foster care class which was the only one that aligned with our schedule for the next two months. We got on our next flight no issues. When we checked in they did state usually you can\u2019t tly tor 24 hours if there\u2019s illness when I asked if there were notes in for the night previous for when I called customer care. However we were put on the next flight 12 hours later. They even tried to make it better putting us in priority boarding and extra leg room which we didn\u2019t care about. We chose the back of the plane on purpose, less windows, it\u2019s usually darker for the baby to nap, and usually other people with kids chose the back. There was such a difference in the second flight sitting up front. Everyone was so much nicer and friendlier. We called Allegiant and they just keep telling us we are not able to get any sort of compensation for our time or experience. They wouldn\u2019t email or give me any policies on traveling with infants and they wouldn\u2019t connect me to a supervisor of any kind. @Allegiant Air also if you\u2019re just here to make comments about a baby being naked or there being more to the story get fucked <\/p>\n
