The dad did not have a boarding pass for the infant in the car seat. The whole event transpired because the gate's computer showed that seat to be vacant. So the agent at the gate assigned that seat to a standby passenger. Obviously, passenger got on board and saw seat was occupied, so he went to FA and reported the issue. Only then does the video begin.
Marty, your version is not in the news report, and unless you were there, how do you know what tickets the family had or what happened before the video? And the Dad clearly says on the video that he paid for the seat and the airline people dont claim otherwise,they insist falsly that law requrie infant to be in a lap. No mention of another passenger boarding and trying to use the same seat.

according to the version I read, pop paid for the flight for his OLDER son. Because they wanted to put the 2 yo in a seat, pop put the older son on a flight the day before. So, technically, pop paid for the seat, but #1 son didn't show up for boarding, so airline treated it as a no-show.
