‘I was breastfeeding on flight when male cabin crew threw a blanket over me’

Going on holiday with a baby can be nerve-wracking – you’re worried they’ll cry or be in pain on take off.

Plus, fellow passengers can be rude or even make comments if your little one starts crying.

While flight attendants have previously said that they don’t mind babies crying – but do mind people complaining about it – that doesn’t always help.

Especially because there are other concerns to be managed such as having to breastfeed while flying.

One mum has revealed that a flight attendant on her flight was rather insulting and lobbed a blanket at her to make her cover up – despite the fact you're legally allowed to breastfeed on a plane.

Priya, 27, revealed: "A male flight attendant threw a blanket at me while I was breastfeeding and said it was to make me ‘more comfortable.’"

She revealed her experience with travel experts at eShores, as part of a group of single parents sharing travel horror stories.
