Woman hides baby in hand luggage
Updated | By East Coast Drive
We need to add 'children' to the list of things prohibited in hand luggage.
A woman flying from Istanbul to Paris tried her baby in her hand luggage.
Crew members on board the Airbus319 said the baby was discovered in the woman's carry-on bag.
It was only discovered once she was on the plane and seated.
When she opened her bag to retrieve something from it, a passenger sitting nearby noticed there was something moving inside it.
The passenger alerted the crew, who discovered the baby, aged one or two, tucked into the closed compartment of the bag.
The woman and her baby were escorted to the front of the plane where they stayed until landing.
Our question: How was the baby not spotted when the bag went through the x-ray machine?
