This Airline Just Accidentally Recreated ‘Home Alone 2’ By Boarding A 6-Year-Old On The Wrong Flight

If it sounds like the plot to Home Alone 2, it pretty much is.

Spirit Airlines just accidentally put a 6-year-old boy on the wrong flight amid the holiday hustle and bustle.

Casper, the 6 year old in question, was supposed to board a flight that would take him to Fort Myers, Florida in time for Christmas.

But instead, Casper got put on a flight to Orlando, Florida.

At least it wasn’t New York, right?!?

I can’t even imagine the panic that ensued when Casper’s grandma went to pick him up at the airport.

His luggage was there — but no Casper.

Spirit Airlines told Casper’s grandmother that Casper had missed the plane to Fort Myers.

But, that wasn’t the case. Not at all.

I said, ‘No, he could not miss his flight because I have the check-in tag.’ I ran inside the plane to the flight attendant and I asked her, ‘Where’s my grandson? He was handed over to you at Philadelphia?’ She said, ‘No, I had no kids with me.’

Casper was ultimately located 160 miles away in Orlando, but Spirit Airlines isn’t giving up much information about the mishap.

If it were my son, I’d be beating down their doors, wanting some answers — and compensation for the trouble!

I want them to call me. Let me know how my grandson ended up in Orlando. How did that happen? Did they get him off the plane? The flight attendant—after mom handed him with paperwork—did she let him go by himself? He jumped in the wrong plane by himself?

At least Casper has a story to tell about his first time on an airplane.

We are so thankful that he was returned safely to his family!! That could have been a complete disaster.
