On Thursday, June 19, multiple sources reported that Dr. Doreen Benary, a New York-based emergency pediatrician, was suing Singapore Airlines following an allergic reaction that she received on a flight from Frankfurt Airport (FRA) to John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) in New York. According to the lawsuit, Benary claims that she informed the cabin crew of her shellfish allergy when she boarded the aircraft and sat down. She, sitting in business class, was allegedly served a meal that contained shrimp, and thus she became violently ill shortly after eating.
