Many airline passengers cannot stand being seated near children on planes and aren't afraid to voice their opinions. One elderly couple have been slammed online for targeting a pregnant woman and her young child on a short-haul flight. The mum took to Mumsnet to share her experience and ask for advice on feeling confident travelling again.
The woman explained that she was travelling home from Spain with her partner and 18-month-old son when everything started to go wrong. They boarded the airport shuttle bus and she took a seat with her toddler in his pram. "An older couple got on after us and proceeded to (loudly) call me rude for feeling entitled to sit down," she recalled in her post.
