Cranky toddler kicked off plane at Seattle airport for refusing to wear seatbelt May 31st 2012, 12:07 A 3-year-old boy who refused to use his seatbelt was kicked off an Alaska Airlines flight at an airport in Seattle. The pilot returned to the gate at Sea-Tac Airport on Saturday and asked the boy and his father to get off. Alaska Airlines said it was a matter of safety and the pilot would rather deal with it on the ground than in mid-flight. But the boy's father, Mark Yanchak of Everett, told MyNorthwest.com that he believes the crew overreacted. "Kids crying, people snoring, large, smelly people, we deal with it, it's normal," Yanchak told the website. "He was crying, being cranky," Yanchak reportedly said of his son. "I started putting him in his seat. I put his seatbelt on. But he was being cranky, trying to be close to me, so he wasn't fully fastened yet." The Associated Press contributed to this report.
