YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A cute little robot named Stewie caused some big drama. The machine's owner booked it on a Southwest flight, even buckling the tiny humanoid into a window seat. A flight attendant was not amused, and called in a colleague to make sure the robot would not pose a hazard. Stewie was able to fly roundtrip. Since those flights, the airline has announced it is banning all robots from the cabin. Stewie's owner Aaron Mehdizadeh spoke to Inside Edition's Les Trent.
