A 3-year-old girl was found wandering around an Israeli airport terminal crying for her mother after her parents collected their duty-free shopping, 18 suitcases and made a mad dash to the boarding gate, according to airport police.
The couple and their five children were late for a flight to Paris on Aug. 3 and in the confusion, their daughter got lost.
On Aug. 4, Israeli media reported that the ultra-orthodox Jewish parents, whose names were not released, didn't realize the child was missing until they were told, in the air, that she had been found at Ben-Gurion airport.
The child, accompanied by an airline staff, took the next flight to Paris where she was safely reunited with her parents.
