Air Canada - Lost Child, Fly Father Back to Recover Him
More good vibes for Air Canada. In the end, they flew the father back to Vancouver to recover his son with no charge. It's one thing to lose your luggage, another scenario altogether when your 23 month-old son is missing.
An immigrant family headed to Winnipeg left a 23-month-old boy in the Vancouver airport and learned he was missing only when contacted during the next leg of their trip.
Jun Parreno, the boy's father, told the Vancouver Sun the mix-up occurred Monday as he, his wife and two grandparents of the child were scrambling between their arrival in Canada and a connecting flight to Winnipeg on Air Canada.
Running late after having to unpack and repack all their luggage, "we had 10 minutes before boarding," said Parreno, who was emigrating with his family from the Philippines. "We were running for the gate."
He said he thought his son was with the three other adult members of the family, who were running to the gate ahead of him, and they thought the little boy was with him.
Instead, in a scenario similar to the movie Home Alone, the toddler was wandering alone between a security checkpoint and the flight gates, said Angela Mah, an Air Canada representative.
