In an insensitive incident which took place in a Manchester bound flight from Ibiza, a woman yelled at couple and asked them to 'shut up their child'.
The child in question is an eight-year-old disabled girl whose mother lambasted a fellow passenger on Facebook for yelling abuse at her daughter who had 'a meltdown' mid-flight.
In a Facebook post, Nicola Colenso stated that the 'abusive' woman screamed "shut that child up" as her daughter Yasmin was crying on the flight from Ibiza to Manchester.

The woman berated the couple in front of their four children and Rick Murray, Colenso's partner, was allegedly branded as a "pr''k" for not keeping his daughter quiet.
The little girl Yasmin who suffers from Sturge-Weber syndrome -- a rare condition affecting the skin, brain and eyes, was later that night rushed to hospital as her condition worsened and her lips turned blue, Colenso was quoted as saying.
Colenso described the incident on the Jet2 flight in her post that has been shared more than 100,000 times on the social networking site.
