6-Year-Old United Airlines Passenger Scarred by Faulty Tray Table Incident, Lawsuit Claims

A lawsuit alleges that a 6-year-old United Airlines passenger was scarred by a hot meal when it fell off a faulty tray table during a flight from Tel Aviv to Newark. The parents claim the tray table was defective, causing the meal to slide onto the girl's lap, resulting in severe burn injuries. They accuse United of negligence in training flight attendants to handle hot meals and respond to burn injuries, seeking medical costs and damages over $75,000. United Airlines declined to comment on the pending litigation.
