Ak Airlines Flights

Then he was asked by the cabin crew to fly with his folks, NBC News reported. "Patrick gave a little and the staff of the carrier tossed my familiy out of the flight," Meaghan, a third-year lawyer and staff member of the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, told the point of sale.

Although Alaska Airlines rescheduled the Washington based Washington hostage for a 6 o'clock plane the next day, Meaghan said they do not provide to foot the bill for accommodation. Meaghan and Patrick's dad explained to a rep for the carrier to Meaghan that the familiy should have been booted, but the airliner reported "extended a courtesy," NBC.

A spokesman for Alaska Airlines later said NBC that the teenager represented a potential medical hazard. "Families could not take off on their initial flights because the family's children were obviously ill. From a wealth of cautiousness, the compound concluded that the infant was not eligible to fly," Rep Ann Johnson explained to NBC.

"Although Alaska Airlines has flown the Hess Hessian home in first grade, Meaghan is not happy with the way the company has dealt with the issue and described its activities as "Disability Discrimination". "I can' t help but think that if it had been a non-disabled kid who would have vomited, the airlines would have thrown this whole damn familiy off the plane," she thought.

It is in this fragmented land that I sincerely pray that we can come together to tackle discriminatory treatment based on disability," she added. Alaska Airlines has been confronted in recent month with allegations of molestation and discriminations affecting both customers and employees. Randi Zuckerberg publicly castigated the airline in November for letting a traveller make "lewd sex comments " to her during her plane ride.

The airline in January prohibited a Californian man from making flights in the near term on the grounds that he had molested a female air hostess during the journey.
