Family Removed From JetBlue Flight Over Birthday Cake

A New Jersey family says that they were kicked off a flight to Las Vegas over a birthday cake they had carried onto the plane.

The flight was a surprise trip for Minta Burke to celebrate her birthday. The family brought a cake on board with them and store it in an overhead compartment. When told to move it, Cameron Burke put it under his seat.

The situation eventually escalated and we're left with the video below:

JetBlue released this statement: "(The customer) refused multiple requests from the crew to remove the items... became agitated, cursed and yelled at the crew, and made false accusations about a crew member's fitness to fly."
