You see, the struggling mom had to hold both babies since they weren’t old enough to sit up on their own. As tensions rose, something unexpected happened, completely restoring Mackenzie’s faith in humanity.
“Moral of the story is when you see people needing help, do the right thing and help them,” Mackenzie summed up. Scroll down to read how a total stranger saved in Murphy’s own words!

This is really sweet. Traveling is already exhausting in of itself, and traveling with young children doesn’t make anything easier. What a wonderful thing for that woman to do, and shame on the airline for making a tiring situation worse.

Did she buy a second seat? If so, why did they need to take the car seat? If not, having the car seat would not have mattered. Am I missing something here?

My guess is that she did not buy another seat because you usually don't need to for babies that young. The mom probably thought she would either put one in the car seat if there happened to be extra room or just hold both, not knowing that 1. it would be a very packed flight and 2. she wouldn't be allowed to hold both babies, so neither of her options would work.

Honestly, WHY NOT INFORM HER ABOUT THAT BEFORE THE FRIGGIN FLIGHT??!?!?!?! IF SHE CAN'T HOLD 2 BABIES THEN WHY THE F**K NOT WRITE THAT IN THE CONDITIONS AT FIRST. WHAT THE F**K.

How were they supposed to know she wasn’t traveling with someone who could hold the duplicate ? It’s up to the traveler to know rules and regulations. The airline has no responsibility to hold your hand. I guarantee this rule is written in the conditions, and honestly this one is just common-sense. Nice of the lady to hold her kid, but I have no sympathy for the mom.
