The issue did not stem from a child under 2,\u201d Frontier Airlines added in a tweet.<\/p>\n<p>Fly Frontier\u2019s face mask <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flyfrontier.com\/committed-to-you\/?mobile=true\">policy<\/a> states that \u201cface coverings are not required for children under the age of 2.\u201d The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/coronavirus\/2019-ncov\/daily-life-coping\/children\/protect-children.html\">recommends<\/a> masks only for children two years of age and older.<\/p>\n<p>All the adults in the group deplaning appear to be wearing face masks, and a female passenger said of the Hasidic family that that she\u00a0\u201csaw them all coming on board with masks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A fellow passenger,\u00a0Hershey Greenbaum, <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2021\/03\/01\/frontier-airlines-claims-large-group-of-maskless-passengers-disrupted-flight\/\">told<\/a> the <em>New York Post<\/em> that the family did in fact appear to be ejected over the one-year-old not wearing a mask and said about 15 police officers responded to the incident.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll the people on the plane were getting really mad and rowdy because, what are you going to do? It\u2019s an 18-month old baby,\u201d Greenbaum said of the fellow passengers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMost of them were saying \u2018Don\u2019t let them do this to you,\u2019\u201d he added. \u201cMost of the people were against it, Jewish or not Jewish, why are you picking on an 18-month-old kid?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In several of the videos, the baby\u2019s mother can be heard saying that she took a face mask off the baby to feed him, after which the baby refused to put the mask back on.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is the baby that\u2019s one year old,\u201d the child\u2019s father explains in the video footage.<\/p>\n<p>A man identified as Orthodox Jewish by OJPAC stood up for the family and shouted at the airline staff for kicking them off, at which point the airline ordered all passengers to deplane and the flight was canceled.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause the baby\u2019s not wearing a mask?\u201d the man can be seen asking the family incredulously.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is an anti-Semitic act!\u201d he calls out.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re going to pay the consequences!\u201d one passenger is heard saying. \u201cI\u2019m having it on tape.
