I about blew a gasket over the weekend as I checked my itenerary online as I always do every couple of days since they've been playing with our flights A LOT from the beginning. This time though I found that they have split my sister's family and mine up onto seperate flights (we leave the same time from the same airport but booked seperate) AND they put my FIVE YEAR OLD four rows up and away from me! Hubby was seated by himself as well this time. I tried the 800# number and couldn't get them to understand that this was unacceptable. They kept telling me that this would be corrected at the gate and that I need to get there early and request a correction. I finally gave up and called the main Atlanta number hoping to talk with someone who had less of a language barrier (no slam intended, I've just not had any luck with the 800# customer service reps). The lady I spoke with in Atlanta ASSURED me that FAA regulations would not allow for an unaccompanied 5 year old to sit by herself and that it WOULD be corrected at the time of boarding and she WOULD be sitting with either her father or myself. Has anyone else ever had this situation occur and can calm my fears that this is indeed true? I would hate to go all "momma bear" on an atendant and end up in the airport pokey if this wasn't true!!
One good thing though is that they were able to put my sister's family and I back on the same flights even though NO ONE is sitting with each other now. It's truly ridiculous to have them go through Cincy while we went through Atlanta and arrive home within 5 minutes of each other!
TIA for any feedback!
