A mother and son who were meant to fly with Allegiant Air earlier this summer were reportedly removed from the flight because the son was severely allergic to nuts and, as per the complaint filed, a crew member onboard did not want to miss out on the commission they earn on selling nuts in flight.

According to Business Insider, the complaint was filed by a passenger after she and her son were "wrongfully removed" from the aircraft earlier this year in July.
