American stopped family whose daughter had special needs from boarding

A family was not allowed to board an American Airlines flight after telling staff their daughter had special needs. .

After being allocated new seats that were not grouped together, they told staff they needed to be next to their 13-year-old daughter because she had special needs and could suffer a seizure.

The family also explained they did not want to be seated at the rear of the aircraft, which they said was louder and bumpier and could trigger a seizure in their daughter.
