A toddler was involuntarily bumped from an American Airlines flight while headed to a “once-in-a-lifetime” trip to Disney World with his deaf mom and military veteran dad, who claim a ticketing agent lied to them about the plane being oversold.
Coby Stewart, the child’s father, was promised a $1,200 voucher and guaranteed to meet back up with his family later that day at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport, but never got the reimbursement after the agent called him – while he was racing to an airport in another state to try and catch an alternate flight with his 4-year-old son Archer – and said the offer was no longer valid because the original flight hadn’t been sold out after all, according to a lawsuit reviewed by The Independent.
