Shocking: Singapore airlines refused to fly Indian-Origin couple with special needs child

George posted on her Facebook page,"Our flight that was to take off at 7:35 am has been delayed by an hour so far because they refuse to fly with my special needs child. They want to deplane us because they refuse to take her," In another post, she wrote"saddened beyond words" over the incident. She also said, "The captain said that it is not his problem if her child slides off her seat and hurts herself during the flight."

In a post-Divya shared a picture holding her daughter and wrote, "Our request for using an infant seat belt was denied as she’s a child with her own seat. (While she’s 5 years old she weighs 8.5 kgs and is the size of a 1-year-old) The Capt sited safety reasons for his inability to let us fly while holding her on our lap with an infant seat belt. He refused to come out and speak to us for an hour and had SAT tell us we could either deboard or leave our daughter on her own seat. Finally when we did speak to him - On mentioning she could hurt herself and will slide off the seat he said: “then it’s the airlines' lookout.”
