A weary Kate Penland and her 19-month-old son, Garron, were more than ready to say goodbye to Houston last month as they sat in an airplane that was 11 hours late for its scheduled departure to Oklahoma City.
Instead, the Buford resident said she and Garron found themselves temporarily stranded when a flight attendant had them thrown off the plane. Their offense? The toddler kept saying, “Bye-bye plane.”
This behavior is not new and explains W’s empty, post-Katrina cabin
on his August 31, 2005 flight over New Orleans.
