Georgie Palmer, a well-known BBC star, recently had a negative experience while flying with her family. She had boarded a SunExpress flight from London Gatwick to Dalaman in Turkey on Tuesday with her husband, Nick Sollom, and their two daughters, Rosie and Annie. However, things took a turn for the worse when they were asked to leave the flight.
The reason for their unexpected departure was due to one of her young daughters having a peanut allergy. Despite Georgie's request, the staff refused to make an announcement to inform other passengers. In a desperate attempt to ensure her daughter's safety, Georgie took matters into her own hands and asked those around her to refrain from eating peanuts and to spread the message throughout the plane. To her relief, the passengers happily complied, row by row.
However, to their shock and disappointment, the captain of the flight became angry and ordered the family to leave the plane before takeoff. This resulted in the family having to spend an additional £5,000 for an airport hotel and an EasyJet flight to their destination the next day. Georgie later took to Instagram to express her frustration and gratitude towards the kind passengers who had helped them during this difficult situation.
Georgie stressed that there was no issue with making simple requests like this, as people are understanding and willing to help. However, the family was still asked to leave the flight by the captain, who was described as "angry" and "little". In an interview with The Mail, Georgie shared that the captain had become upset when he found out she had spoken to other passengers and had even shouted at her from the cockpit.
The SunExpress spokesperson responded to these allegations by stating that the safety of their passengers is their top priority. They explained that a passenger had raised concerns about the daughter's peanut allergy, but the airline refrains from making announcements as they cannot guarantee an allergen-free environment on their flights. The spokesperson also mentioned that the passenger had behaved aggressively towards the crew members and even tried to gain access to the cockpit, which prompted the captain to ask them not to travel.
Georgie's husband, Nick, denied any aggressive behavior, and the airline stated that they had not received any notification about the special care required for their daughter's allergy. They concluded by acknowledging that it was a difficult situation for the family and that they will be conducting a review of their booking process to provide better solutions for passengers with allergies.
In light of this incident, it is essential to understand the seriousness of peanut allergies and the potential reactions that can occur. Symptoms can range from skin reactions to digestive problems, and in severe cases, shortness of breath or tightening of the throat. The airline also reminded passengers to notify them in advance of any medical conditions that require special care.
