Mum accuses airline of barring daughter from flight home due to nut allergy

A woman has claimed her young daughter was forced to sleep on the floor of an airport after she was barred from a flight because she has a nut allergy.

She alleges that a Turkish Airlines worker told her they couldn't fly back to London Gatwick from Bodrum in Turkey, prompting her eight-year-old daughter to burst into tears.

Despite the mum having told the airline that her daughter has anaphylaxis and could die if put in contact with nuts, she claims the company loaded desserts filled with the foodstuff onto the plane.
