Siblings with deadly nut allergy told to 'spend seven hours in loo'

A brother and sister were told by Emirates cabin crew to 'sit in the loo' after informing flight staff over their severe nut allergies at 36,000 feet. Shannen Sahota, 24, and Sundeep, 33, were made to head to the toilet when cashews were served on their seven and-a-half hour flight. The pair - who flew from Birmingham Airport - say they warned the airline three times about their allergies. The duo were shocked when the fried nuts were served 40 minutes into the flight, leaving them "panic stricken".
