David, 44, was travelling back from Morroco when British Airways (BA) oversold a flight resulting in the family losing their allocated seats.

The model was then left stunned when he discovered the airline had not taken steps to seat his tot Tabitha Isabella alongside him or another family member.

Instead, BA assigned her a seat next to a random passenger for the four hour flight leaving dad David dumfounded.

Since the ordeal David has taken to X formerly known Twitter to clap back at airline, he penned: “ so @British_Airways you have oversold the flight.

“Seats allocated to us have disappeared and you think its ok for my 2 year old to be sat on her own next to a stranger? What if theres an emergency?

“BA: well nothing we can do so yes its ok.

"COME on BA you can do better than this”

In a swift response BA responded to the tweet: “Hi, please send us your booking reference via DM along with as much information as possible so we can take a closer look. We'll also need you to confirm your full name and contact details. We may need to ask you a few more questions for data protection.”
