A family of four (2 kids)...kicked off and refunded (not re-booked) ... Cameron Burke told the Daily News that they first put the cake in an overhead bin, but a flight attendant "nicely" asked them to remove it. So he moved it to another one, he said.
"She then asked me to move it to underneath the seat in front of me," Cameron Burke told the newspaper. "I did."
At this point, he said, a second flight attendant intervened and began accosting the first flight attendant.

I don't understand why the cake wasn't permitted in the overhead bin. I'm assuming since they bought it at a bakery, it was sealed. If the cake falls out or gets crushed, they have a crushed cake. *shrug*
The airline security seemed to think everything was fine when they got off the plane - sounds like the flight attendants went a little overboard.
I can't bring a bottle of water through security but they can bring a cake?
You can x-ray a cake and see that there is no saw or bomb inside. Water could be a different ignitable fluid. TSA let the cake pass and so did the gate agent and the 1st stewardess.

Ok. So we have how many flights per day in the US? LOTS. I guess now with ease of creating video proof, we now know that flight attendants go psycho about once every few days.
Why the f woukd you bring a cake on a plane. Just buy one when you get to your destination. It's a cake.
