The email statement read, “You and your daughter should expect nothing less than to be treated with the utmost respect, compassion, and care.”

It continued,  “It is truly disappointing to hear that you both did not feel that way during boarding and during the interactions with our Flight Attendant. We want to assure you that we take these matters very seriously and have shared your concern with our Inflight Management team that will conduct an internal investigation.”
