And everyone on the flight survived! What a time to be alive!
Be thankful you don’t have a child like that. Have compassion for the parents, who have as much right as you do to be there. Put your headphones on and take a nap. You probably annoyed the hell out of someone at one point as a child.

+1 It would have been unreal. Bet the drinkers on that plane emptied the liquor supply.

To summarize the situation a child screamed for 8 hours straight on a flight from Germany to the USA and was running around the cabin and climbing on seats.
My question is why wasn't an emergency stop made and the family removed from the plan? The running and climbing where safety issues and people are removed for far less.

You posted the link, how kind of you to be so sensitive. The poor overwhelmed parents.
This kid isn't denomic as so many lovely websites have dubbed him. He's obviously non verbal.
I'm so glad they weren't thrown off the plane. That would be cruel because it's obviously a situation out of parents control.
No it isn't-they did nothing at all to try to stop it. Child may or may not be verbal, but mother literally did nothing other than try to use iPad at one point.

would the money then be distributed to all the people who had to bear the brunt of the behavior or would the airline just keep it?Anonymous wrote:What's the PPs said. The emergency stop would have cost the airline $$$ in terms of delays, gas, re-booked passengers, pushed back flights. The only time they turn the plane around usually is with a threat to the security of the aircraft.
Still I wish rowdy, disruptive passengers were assessed fines. If they put cameras in the planes they could easily say 'the flight attendant had to deal with your drunken belligerent behavior or your child's crappy screaming for x amount of time' and instill fees of $100 or $200 or 10% of the cost of the ticket.

I would rather listen to a kid scream for eight hours than be deplaned.

According to the passengers this happened the entire 8 hours. They weren't over ocean the entire time.

He wasn't just screaming, but running around the aisle and climbing on seats and playing with the overhead
Was he screaming while climbing?
