A crew of a South African company plane asked a 10-year-old boy to change his shirt that he wore because of the photo printed on his shirt of a snake, on the pretext that it would disturb travelers.

The child's parents said that the crew prevented the transfer of any game in the form of a snake, and also asked them to replace the boy's shirt to prevent any problems for other passengers who may feel uncomfortable during the flight.

The boy complied to ask for the kit, turned his shirt and wore it, while airport security officers said that it was the crew's right to assess everything that could cause passengers to be anxious and uncomfortable, and to take necessary action towards it.
