Brenda Song, the well-known actress, is currently embroiled in a heated dispute with Alaska Airlines.
Song, who is 37, has publicly criticized the airline for disrupting a family vacation she had planned with her fiancé, Macaulay Culkin. The issue arose when the airline reportedly separated her from their young sons, Dakota, age 4, and Carson, age 3, despite the family having booked first-class seats well in advance.
In an impassioned post on Instagram, the former Disney Channel star expressed her frustration, stating that their seats had been “given away” without any notice. This disruption occurred just as they were set to celebrate Dakota’s birthday.
“I wasn’t aware that when you book your first class tickets 6 months in advance for your family, @alaskaair can simply give away your seats the morning of without any warning,” she vented on her Instagram Story this past Saturday.
Song further emphasized her dissatisfaction by tagging Culkin in the post and advised her followers to “never fly” with the airline again.
The “Home Alone” icon quickly backed up his partner, reposting her tirade with a cheeky but telling jab: “Hell hath no fury like a Brenda scorned…”
The airline is now in full damage-control mode. A spokesperson told TMZ that the incident was “unacceptable” and did not reflect the company’s standards.
“Traveling can be stressful, especially with young children, and we pride ourselves on being a top airline for traveling families,” added the spokesperson. “We are deeply sorry for adding friction to the experience.”
Alaska has reached out to the couple to make things right, according to the outlet.
Song and Culkin, who met in 2017 on the set of “Changeland”, have kept their relationship relatively private, though they’ve recently offered fans more glimpses into their home life. The pair got engaged in early 2022, welcoming Dakota and Carson in 2021 and 2022.
But their family dynamic has already raised eyebrows. Song recently revealed during an appearance on ‘The Jennifer Hudson Show” that Culkin still doesn’t know how to drive.
“I took him out to drive in our neighborhood. I was terrified,” she admitted, calling him a “very unique human being.”
Despite the chaos in the skies, the couple has been soaring in real estate.
They reportedly dropped $10.3 million on a new six-bedroom mansion in Los Angeles’s Sherman Oaks after unloading their Toluca Lake home for a whopping $14.24 million.
