On August 17, JetBlue presented Maribel Martinez with the wrong child, after arriving at the Kennedy Airport to pick up her son. The child presented to her was supposed to be sent to Boston, which is where her son, Andy, was sent instead. So, how do you mistake two children for one another? When the unaccompanied minors boarded the airplane in the Dominican Republic, the other child was said to be carrying Andy’s passport. On the plus side, both children boarded a plane safely, however; it wasn’t the correct plane. (Source: Mashable)
