I wasn't suggesting that the FA should ask the passenger to buy the food for the child. I was suggesting that the passenger should put the food on a card and the child would give the passenger the money. This is a different thing, and I am not sure at all how the "airline management" would hear about or why they would find anything wrong with it.

As for the parent giving the child something to eat, I agree. But they may have instead given the child money to buy something. Who would think that an airline would refuse to accept cash?

On the free stuff... I checked their website. It says that they do have free stuff.. this is the list..

We can't stand the thought of serving you regular airline food, so instead we've got a wide assortment of irresistible snacks and drinks. Want more than one? Be our guest.


Snacks

• Terra Blues® Chips
• Doritos® Munchies Mix
• Linden's Chocolate Chippers
• All Nuts roasted cashews
• Stauffers® Animal Crackers
• Chifles® Plantain Chips

Cold drinks

• Coke®/Diet Coke®/Coke Zero®
• Sprite®/Sprite Zero®
• Ginger Ale
• Seltzer Water
• Tonic Water
• Cranberry Juice

• Apple Juice
• Tomato Juice
• Bloody Mary Mix
• Arizona® Iced Tea
• Aquarius Spring!™ Water

Dunkin' Donuts® hot drinks

• Original Blend Coffee
• Decaf® Coffee

• Decaf Tea

On that basis.. I think this complaint is without merit, unless the FA also refused to offer the child any of the free stuff.
