Did You Hear About The Black Couple Who Got Kicked Off An American Airlines Flight With Their Infant? (VIDEO)
Did you hear about the horrible thing that happened to a black couple and their 7 week old newborn on An American Airlines flight? They got kicked off! You’d think it was like something out of a movie or it was so ridiculous it seemed that it might be a prank…It wasn’t.
Here are the facts. Allan Ali and Kamia Hoilett were traveling from Philly to Charlotte where the incident took place. They made room for another passenger to sit on their row when a Flight Attendant asked if there was a problem? Confused? Well, apparently the couple was, too.
Shortly after, they along with their newborn were asked to leave the plan. The flight attendant told the pilot about the incident. Then the pilot decided the couple would need to be removed. Still confused? See the video below for yourself.
As you can imagine, the video has gone viral and the couple has hired an attorney and planning to sue American Airlines. As for the airlines, they did issue a statement saying that type of treatment is “unfortunate.” Go figure.
