JetBlue US airline has being sued for reuniting mother with the wrong child
According to Maribel Martinez, she was shocked when JetBlue staffers presented her with an unfamiliar boy of five-year-old on August 17 at John F Kennedy Airport. “No, this is not my child,” she recalled telling JetBlue employees. “I was freaking out.”
The report from msn had it that Martinez has since filed a lawsuit against JetBlue for unspecified damages, for the “great emotional distress, extreme fear, horror, mental shock, mental anguish and psychological trauma”.
The New York mother had returned early from a holiday to the Dominican Republic, leaving her five-year old son Andy with family in the Caribbean. She had paid JetBlue $100 for a member of staff to escort Andy on to the plane, but was distraught to find that Andy was nowhere to be found.
It took airline staff three hours to locate the child, who had accidentally been flown to Boston. “I thought he was kidnapped,” said Ms Martinez. “I thought I would never see him again.”
“Any parent can understand the terrifying fear a mother goes through knowing that her child is missing,” the family's lawyer Sanford Rubenstein said. “This never should have happened and the JetBlue employees should be ashamed of themselves.”
"While the children were always under the care and supervision of JetBlue crew members, we realise this situation was distressing for their families" - JetBlueCredit: JOE RAEDLE.
Meanwhile in Boston, Andy was told he would be reunited with his mother, only to be escorted to a woman he had never seen before.
Both unaccompanied five-year-old boys had boarded at Cibao International Airport in the Dominican Republic. Ms Martinez said her son was wearing a wristband with his name on it, but the other child was carrying Andy's passport.
“Upon learning of the error, our teams in JFK and Boston immediately took steps to assist the children in reaching their correct destinations,” the airline said in a statement at the time. “While the children were always under the care and supervision of JetBlue crew members, we realise this situation was distressing for their families.”
JetBlue put Andy on a flight to New York that same day, and refunded Martinez $475 for Andy's return ticket and also gave the family $2,100 in credit.
A JetBlue Airways spokesman said the company did not comment on pending legal action.

There is no easy solution to Nigeria’s problems - President Mohammadu Buhari
President Muhammadu Buhari, on Saturday during the independence day, admitted that there is no easy solution to the countless of problems facing the country today.
In a nationwide broadcast to mark 56th Independence Day anniversary, the President, however, assured Nigerians that his administration was pursuing the solutions available to it with a view to repositioning the country. Buhari said it was normal for countries to face ups and downs, while attributing the economic recession in the country to a shortage of foreign exchange and violence by the Niger Delta militants.
He said, the problems are not permanent but temporary.
He said, “The recession has been brought about by a critical shortage of foreign exchange. Oil price dropped from an average of $100 per barrel over the last decade to an average of $40 per barrel this year and last.
“Worse still, the damage perpetrated by Niger Delta thugs on pipelines reduced Nigeria’s production to below one million barrels per day against the normal 2.2 million barrels per day. Consequently, the naira is at its weakest, but the situation will stabilise.
“But this is only temporary. Historically, about half of our dollar export earnings went to importation of petroleum products and food. Nothing was saved for a rainy day during the periods of prosperity. We are now reaping the whirlwinds of corruption, recklessness and impunity.
“There are no easy solutions, but there are solutions nonetheless. The government is pursuing them in earnest. We are to repair our four refineries so that Nigeria can produce most of our petrol requirements locally, pending the coming on stream of new refineries. That way, we will save $10bn
