Family outraged after major airline seats toddler apart from parents, sparking viral debate

A family seating mix-up on a recent flight has sparked online debate over whether airlines should guarantee that parents and young children sit together or not.

The dispute began after a passenger shared on X that his wife and two young children were automatically assigned seats in separate rows on a Southwest Airlines flight.

The family did not pay for seat selection, the post noted. Rather, the airline’s system assigned seats individually.
