They don’t want to pay the ticket for their son: they decide to leave him at the airport

Having a child is one of the best things that can happen in life, but you have to admit that habits change
and it is often difficult to decide to do certain things without the anxiety of having to leave your little
one behind. But the important thing is to know how to organize yourself and, if you can’t take him with
you, you have to ask the grandparents or specialized people to take care of him.

It’s not something the parents in this story apparently thought about. They decided to fly with their
child, but when they got to the airport and found they had to buy a ticket for the child as well, they
decided to leave him there and continue on their own. The incident took place at Ben-Gurion Airport in
Tel Aviv, Israel, where a couple with Belgian passports were about to board the flight that was to take
them back to Brussels, Belgium. Once they arrived at the check-in counter, the two presented only two
tickets, convinced that the little one did not have to pay, but the staff of the Ryanair company, with
which they were going to fly, told them that in order to be able to to leave, they had to take a boarding
pass for the minor as well. This apparently confused the parents.

After leaving the counter, the two made a drastic decision: since they had no intention of buying
another ticket for the child, they chose to leave him at the airport and continue to the next check alone.
Fortunately, airport staff immediately noticed the abandoned stroller and immediately alerted the
police, who arrested the two people. According to those present at the time of the incident, these
parents returned immediately and took the child back. , but the case has now passed into the hands of
the authorities, who will have the task of understanding the reasons for such a gesture.

Of course, arriving late at the airport, risking missing the flight and suddenly knowing that you have to
pay for another ticket, all create confusion, but deciding to leave a child for this reason seems like an
exaggeration. . So here is the need to investigate the real reasons, hoping that it was just a moment of
tension and that if they had not been stopped by the staff, these parents would have returned anyway
look for their child.
