Jetstar passenger told to stow dirty nappy at her feet during flight

Caroline Williams Reporter from North Shore Times

A mother on board a one-hour Jetstar flight couldn't find a rubbish bin in the plane's toilet to dispose of her son's soiled nappy. Instead, she left the nappy inside a nappy bag "safe" in the toilet's corner.

She said she was humiliated by a flight attendant who exclaimed loudly that she couldn't leave it there because it was "very stinky", and demanded she retrieve the nappy to stow at her feet.

Have you experienced a similar issue while traveling with your baby? Do you have an in-flight horror story?

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
