The parents of a six-year-old child have sued United Airlines, claiming their daughter was ''burned and disfigured'' after a hot meal served by a flight attendant spilled onto her lap.

The incident occurred on a United Airlines flight travelling from Israel's Tel Aviv Ben Gurion Airport (TLV) to New Jersey's Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) in July 2022. The child, who was flying with her mother, has been referred to as O.F. in the lawsuit filed by her parents, according to reports in the local media.
