VIRGIN ATLANTIC: wont let our friends fly 'cos their little boy sick!
Friends right now are at LHR, ready for their flight out here, little boy thrown up in departures, probably due to travel sickness, and they wont let them fly!!
they have to travel back home (round trip of 300 miles) get a doctors certificate and "try again tomorrow"!!!

I know if i got sick from a passenger on a plane i would be v v upset.
I would pay extra for tickets for an airline that doesnt let kids travel if they look like they may cry or be a pain in the arse!

It seems that Virgin Atlantic is on its toes. The saga of Andrew Speaker is not all that far in the past -- although the problem there was Speaker himself and later government FUBAR's. Until that incident I had had an history of excellent encounters with Canoe U. grads.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2007_tuberculosis_scare
The 2007 tuberculosis scare occurred when Atlanta personal-injury lawyer[1] Andrew "Drew" Speaker[2] (dubbed the 'TB Guy' by major American news organizations) flew from the Atlanta, Georgia to Paris, France and then returned on a flight from Prague, Czech Republic to Montreal, Canada, when he crossed over the border and back into the United States while infected with multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention believed at the time that Speaker was suffering from extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB). The incident sparked a debate in Congress on the failure of federal customs agents to stop him.[2] Upon Speaker's return to the United States, the CDC placed him under involuntary isolation (similar to quarantine) using a provision of the Public Health Service Act.[3] With this action, Speaker became the first individual subjected to a CDC isolation order since 1963.[4]
