High-flying barrister, 41, and his family are removed from BA flight at Heathrow
Funny article from DailyMail.com

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...rmed-cops.html
  • Charles Banner, QC, 41 was forced to leave the plane with his family and nanny
  • Matters became heated after Mr Banner was told the children's nanny had been allocated a seat in economy and he and his wife wanted to work during the flight
  • Mr Banner claims BA plane staff were 'rude' with one commenting: 'You wish.'
  • Pilot refused to take off until family left. The flight was delayed by 90 minutes
Seems like the story was updated after initial posting to include. Matters became heated after Mr Banner was informed that the children's nanny had only been allocated a seat in economy when he arrived at the boarding gate.

Mr Banner paid for business class tickets, but his nanny had been downgraded because BA oversold the flight.
