Bad air day: KLM bumps cellist with two kids

Bad air day: KLM bumps cellist with two kids

The Dutch flag carrier has lived up to national courtesy standards by refusing to board cellist Maja Bogdanović, her husband, violinist Daniel Rowland and their children aged one and three.

KLM officials said the cello seat had not been booked properly on the flight from Amsterdam to Belgrade.

Maja said: ‘Running through security and passport controls with cello and two kids is definitely no fun – at the end the check in desk let Daniel join us to fly, BUT.. wait, no-no, just before entering the bus, we couldn’t board… they let 6 people from standby list to get in.’

Doesn’t get much worse.
