“#Couple vacations without daughter after flight drama over masks<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n

A couple whose plans to visit the Big App<\/a>le were dashed when they were kicked off a United Airlines flight because their 2-year-old daughter refused to wear a face mask later ditched the kid and vacationed in Florida, according to a report.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, Eliz Orban posted a viral video of the family\u2019s travel<\/a>s as they were set to fly from Denver to Newark International Airport on a trip to see the Rockefeller Christmas tree.<\/p>\n

Instead, they were booted off the flight over the coronavirus precaution.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe just got kicked off the flight because our 2-year-old would not put on a mask, and we tried,\u201d a teary Orban said in the clip about the visibly upset Edeline.<\/p>\n

The couple eventually decided to head to the Sunshine State instead \u2013 flying on Delta and leaving the toddler at home, Insider reported.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s hard to comprehend the past couple of days, and all I\u2019ve been doing is praying that God would speak through us, use this story, and give us strength to keep going despite all the evil we have encountered,\u201d Orban wrote on Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 26-year-old health coach shared a photo at Denver International Airport by the Delta departures terminal.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt breaks our heart that we couldn\u2019t bring our daughter, we tried calling the airlines and couldn\u2019t get a straight answer from anyone and we could honestly just not go through again what we went through on Friday,\u201d she continued.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur daughter is in the best hands at home, and as hard as it is that she\u2019s not here \u2014 knowing how much love she is surrounded by gives us so much peace. We couldn\u2019t bear to take her through what we went through again,\u201d Orban wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cI still feel humiliated, traumatised, and triggered by what happened. But the amount of messages I have gotten by people being on our side and experiencing similar situations has truly been overwhelmingly beautiful,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Orban also said they sat in Delta\u2019s \u201cboujiest first class\u201d because another social media<\/a> user offered to pay for their flight to Palm Beach after the incident.<\/p>\n

\u201cI balled my eyes out. And here we are,\u201d she wrote, adding: \u201cAnd for all the people calling us morons for traveling in a pandemic, please slide to the next picture posted BY @united and remember there are hundreds of thousands of people flying every single day- but if it makes you happy to single us out, then whatever floats your boat.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the Dec. 11 video, Orban said United had barred them from flying \u201cforever.\u201d<\/p>\n

But an airline rep told Insider<\/a> that was not the case and that their tickets were refunded.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe health and safety of our employees and customers is our highest priority, which is why we have a multi-layered set of policies, including mandating that everyone onboard two and older wears a mask,\u201d United told Insider in a statement.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese procedures are not only backed by guidance from the CDC and our partners at the Cleveland Clinic, but they\u2019re also consistent across every major airline,\u201d it added.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
