This policy is ridiculous though. I think the age cut off is six. They enforce this to make families purchase early boarding and it has put Southwest at the very bottom when it comes to how the airlines treat families or anyone traveling together.
The age cutoff is 4, and while the GA may have overreacted, I applaud her for applying the rules.

This guy seems to have been looking for trouble
