A little boy looking forward to seeing his nan in Spain was "turned away" from the airport after being told he could not board the flight. Four-year-old Jacob Thomas was "holding hands and laughing" with his cousin at Liverpool John Lennon Airport on Thursday excited to jet off abroad.
But, what should have been a relaxing time away ended in "tears" as the family was told he could not board the flight. Jacob's uncle, Ben, from Ormskirk, was flying to Alicante with his wife and daughter on July 28 when his brother Justin Thomas decided to let them take his son Jacob with them.
Having spent £400 on Jacob's holiday, the family say they were told they needed to book him as a separate flight which would then be linked to theirs.
