A couple is going viral after leaving for their holiday, without their two-year-old, who wouldn’t wear a mask.
According to media sources, the couple was kicked off from a United Airlines flight, after their toddler refused to wear the protective gear. But instead of changing their holiday plans, they decided to go ahead and venture off without their daughter.
The mum, Eliza Orban explains how she was absolutely devastated and ‘heartbroken’ when she and her husband had to make the difficult decision. And that meant leaving their 2-year old child behind, as they headed out for a festive holiday.
Earlier this month, the family made heads turn when they were forced to get off a flight as their little one threw tantrums about donning a facemask. The family claim that they were heading towards Newark from Denver when the incident took place.
The couple was super excited and ecstatic to visit the magical Rockefeller Center’s Christmas tree in New York City. While the pair tried their level best at covering their little child’s mouth with alternate means, she just wouldn’t comply.
Therefore, the video of the incident was posted on social media, going viral in minutes. In the short clip, Eliza explains how the family got kicked off of a flight because their toddler wouldn’t put a mask on.
Recent news sources mentioned how the couple decided to go away with another airline, Delta, bagging first-class seats too. However, they left their little 2-year-old behind.
