Apple Juice Tantrum Causes Plane To Make Emergency Landing

POSTED: 5:59 pm EDT June 26, 2007
UPDATED: 11:27 am EDT June 27, 2007

A child's tantrum onboard a Delta commuter flight forced a pilot to make an emergency landing at Philadelphia International Airport.

Chopper 10 was over the scene.

The forced landing was caused by a fight over apple juice.

A 4-year-old wanted apple juice and when the stewardess didn't get it quick enough, the child threw a tantrum, NBC 10 reported.

The Delta commuter flight landed around 5 p.m. Tuesday.

The flight originated in New York and was headed to North Carolina before the incident.

Passengers were spending the night in Philadelphia, NBC 10 reported.

Authorities said there would be no charges filed in the incident.

Wow. Must be very embarassing for the parents...but I wonder how serious of a tantrum was it? I mean, it was a 4 year old....did they *have* to land?
 
I know that children could fly 'unaccompanied'. I'm not sure if that has changed. The parents need continuing education regardless.
