Flown Alone: Unaccompanied 6-Year-Old Put On Wrong Spirit Airlines Flight
HuffPost
Amid the holiday travel rush, young Casper ended up in Orlando, Florida — four hours away from his grandmother.
An unaccompanied 6-year-old flying for his first time to see his grandmother in Florida was put on the wrong Spirit Airlines flight Thursday, WINK News reported.
Amid the holiday travel rush, young Casper was supposed to fly from Philadelphia International Airport to Southwest Florida International Airport in Fort Myers. Instead, he boarded a flight to Orlando ― four hours away from his intended destination.
Maria Ramos, the grandmother, told WINK News about the panic that set in when her grandson didn’t get off the plane in Fort Myers.
“They told me, ‘No, he’s not on this flight. He missed his flight.’ I said, ‘No, he could not miss his flight because I have the check-in tag,’” Ramos 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.’”
